Celebration Of Life | Somatic Ecstatic Dance | Wānaka

As we approach the end of the year, it’s a beautiful time to come together and honor all that has been and all that lies ahead.

Through the highs, the lows, the losses, and the triumphs, we’ve lived another year—and what better way to celebrate and integrate these experiences than through dance?


I am beyond thrilled to gather this incredible community of dancers, which has blossomed so beautifully over the past year, for one final dance before we each head off on our own journeys for a while. (Don’t worry—dances resume on January 16th!)


The 19th holds deep significance for me, as it marks the day I lost someone I love dearly. Hosting this dance feels like the perfect way to celebrate their life while honoring both the cycles of life and death.

It would mean the world to have you join me for this special evening. Let’s come together, move, and celebrate LIFE in all its fullness.

More About Somatic Dance:

Somatic dance is a dance journey of free-flow and facilitated movement by the rhythm of music and voices

We tune into the body and we start to become aware and connect with the sensations

It is an invitation to cultivate inner exploration to go beneath the layers of the mind we release any right or wrong way to dance. This is the creation of your own movement

This is a space to be explored & shared with your friends and also new souls that you don’t know yet!

Connect with others humans while dancing is a real fun way to communicate...

The recipe is simple: No booze, no shoes, great music, and an epic tribe come together to dance. Don't worry about steps or form or how you look, it's not that kind of dance.

WE HAVE COME TO BE DANCED.
