Epicure Ecstatic Dance - Manly
Description
Welcome to a new era of ecstatic dance — where freedom, connection, and celebration meet deep nourishment and healing.
A party that’s just as full-power and alive as it is intentional, grounding, and transformative.
Ecstatic dance is more than a night out on the dancefloor. It’s an invitation to return to your true self — to release, express, and rediscover freedom through movement, music, and presence. Rooted in ancient tribal rituals and practiced across cultures for thousands of years, this is a living meditation in motion.
Join the tribe. Feel the rhythm. Remember who you are.
✨ Arrive for 5:30 PM to meet your tribe, enjoy your drink & elixirs fully, and let the medicine work before the journey unfolds. Once the dance begins, the body takes over.

FAQs
- What is Ecstatic Dance?
A free-form movement practice where you dance without choreography, substances, or judgement. It’s about listening to your body, expressing yourself, and moving however feels right.
- Do I need dance experience?
No experience needed. There are no steps to follow — just move in your own way. Everyone is welcome, exactly as they are.
- Is alcohol or drugs allowed?
No. This is a substance-free event. We create clarity, safety, and authentic connection without alcohol or drugs.
- Can I just watch?
Yes. You’re welcome to sit, lie down, or move gently at any time. Listening to your body is part of the practice.
- What should I wear?
Wear comfortable clothes you can move and sweat in. Bare feet are recommended.
- What time should I arrive?
We strongly recommend arriving by 5:30 PM to enjoy a mocktail or elixir, settle in, and be ready for the opening circle. Doors close before the dance begins.
- Is this a safe space?
Yes. This is a respectful, inclusive, consent-based space. Everyone is invited to move freely while honouring others’ boundaries.
- Can I bring my kids?
Not recommended due to loud music, low lighting, and wildly dancing adults. For this event, we’re keeping it 15+ only. This is mainly to protect the safety and depth of the space, as the environment can be quite immersive and not always suitable for younger ones.
