What is Cacao?
Ceremonial Cacao is a natural drink that has heart opening properties & is an aphrodisiac.
It elevates your mood and give you confidence to move and dance freely in your body.
What is Ecstatic Dance?
Ecstatic dance is a form of freeform movement where we can express ourselves through dance without choreography. The musical journey allows us to move our body intuitively, tapping into emotions, and experiencing a sense of liberation and joy. The dance-floor is a judgement free, phone-free and conversation free space.
What is a Sound Bath?
Tapping into vibrational frequencies from sacred instruments to promote relaxation and restore balance in the body, mind, and spirit. A lovely way to integrate after our dance. You lay down and relax and Lara will play the instruments.
What our community are saying:
''I love coming to these events - i'm always buzzing with life after!''
''For me ecstatic dance is a liberating journey of self-expression and connection, where movement becomes medicine for the soul. Thank you for this safe, well held space''
''Thank you for creating such a lovely community and a space where i can explore myself and my emotions. I have been looking for community like this. So grateful''
What to bring:
Water bottle, wear something you can easily move around in, something comfy for the sound bath - a yoga mat and blanket (eye pillow if you want to go all out) is lovely. A cushion to sit on for cacao ceremony can be nice too. We will have a few.
See you on the dance floor tribe!
