About this dance
A lot of spaces are opened up for the maiden and light vibes to play,
But what about the crone? The sorceress? The werewolf?
But what about the crone? The sorceress? The werewolf?
Feral, earthy, wild vibes?
Though we welcome all energies -for spirit is so very fluid- this is a space specifically wishing to cater to your Wildwoman/ Shakti.

Hi I’m Lucianna, this is my first dance and highly experimental. This is not serious just to have fun and let loose with a more underworld deep earth feel.
Price? You can do a sliding scale 0-10$ if you want, but i am new to this and still getting the hang of it so I dont really mind tbh. Just show up. Doing this for fun.
The music selection is darker than what ive experienced before, but we will take time to also lighten it up at the end. Focusing on more primal, tribal and earthy vibrations (along with a fair bit of techno-ey vibes mixed in). Some of it is borrowed from artists online, some made by yours truly. This is an experiment indeed.
So if you’re feeling the need to crawl on all fours and growl, come on down.
(if you feel like a pretty little fairy, or weeping banshee, thats totally fine too, Shakti is all of these things isn’t she)
Feel free to leave an offering, draw a tarot, and just see what the vibe is about.

Learn more about ecstatic dance1
We dance barefoot
This allows us to connect more fully with the ground. Socks are OK, and dance shoes are fine if a physical condition calls for them.
2
We dance without words
This makes it easier to be in a meditative state. No verbal instruction from the facilitators, no talking from the dancers.
3
We dance sober, as we are
No drugs or alcohol, no phones or cameras, no scents. Just be yourself, with respect for ourselves, the space and one another.
