About Ecstatic Dance:
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.
Our dance is one that throws the rule books away and instead encourages you to release to the music and let go of that pesky judging mind. Transcending language, cultural and personal barriers, Ecstatic Dance enables millions to connect through dance and music all over the world.
Ecstatic Dance helps us break down the layers of self and come together as a tribe the way our ancestors have always done until very recently. By getting in touch with our roots and our bodies we are able to unlock the deep knowledge of the body and the heart and start to release control of the thinking mind.
When we step on the dance floor, we include our whole selves, even the frightened parts that want to hide.
We dance through pain and sorrow. we dance with joy until our hard edges soften and our masks fall away. We meet other courageous dancers, weaving unbreakable threads of connection. our friendships transcend the boundaries of time and space. and it all melts together–beat, movement, breath–into a swirling vortex we call community. As the throbbing pulse of the dance floor matches our own heartbeat, we know, without a doubt, we are not alone.
