ECSTATIC CONNECTION

ECSTATIC CONNECTION @ TAKAPUNA WAR MEMORIAL HALL - AUGUST 16th

Dancing is to the free human spirit as air is to our lungs.

It may just be our most vulnerable and honest form of self-expression.

Ecstatic dance is a free-form movement with no steps to learn or instructions to follow. It’s the full release of your innermost self through the physical body. In other words, it’s an opportunity to move however you want to move and to simply feel free in your body.

Ecstatic dance is typically run in silence and with little to no communication with other people in the room. We are here to break that tradition by offering an evening that focuses on connection rather than personal space. We’ll start by dancing with ourselves then end together to share honest conversations and a chance to get to know the people who have enjoyed the space with you.

Whether you’ve attended one of our events before, or are new to the Connection for the Curious experience, you’ll find a welcoming space that provides you with tools and guidance to get to know a few new like-minded individuals and to get to know yourself deeper in the process.

Your guide, Logan, has brought countless people together through many different practices and experiences. You can read more about him and our story here.
