BLOOM - Ecstatic Dance
This month's theme: BLOOM
Let's allow ourselves to gently bloom open as we unfurl from winter hibernation and move into the Spring equinox. Expect an uplifting mix of world, electronica and bass music, allowing cathartic release, joy and warm connection with ourselves and our dance community.
This month’s facilitator is Marisa
Marisa (aka ZALA) is a DJ and events extraordinaire, with 20+ years experience organising and programming festivals and events. With a keen ear for diverse music which transcends genres, Marisa loves to curate community gatherings to inspire, connect people, and get them authentically moving their bodies.
When: Arrive at 3.55pm for a for a 4:00pm start
Bring: A water bottle, and a yoga mat/blanket/cushion
This dance is an alcohol-free event / LGBTQI friendly
Once the music has begun, we encourage you to keep talking to a minimum so that everyone can enjoy the embodiment!
ABOUT US:
The Canberra Ecstatic Dance Collective monthly dance offering is a safe and supportive space to express, release, and experience joy through movement.
Each dance has a different theme and a different facilitator, BUT every dance will be a safe space to explore movement within a dynamic dance community.
The ecstatic dance movement has three foundational principles:
1) Dance barefoot if possible to connect more fully with the ground.
2) Dance without words to promote a meditative state, as there is no verbal instruction from facilitators during the experience.
3) Dance as you are, meaning without the use of drugs, alcohol, phones, cameras, and with no expectations or judgment.

**Please note, although we are using a church hall, this is a non-religious, non-denominational event.
