To our Dance Medicine Family!✨✨✨✨✨
Venue Change: 6 minutes drive from the Fairmount location, still accessible by public transit, we've been invited to dance together at another mansion, but this time it's a big private residence with a huge shaded lawn. There is a composting toilet on site as well as amazing beautiful gardens. Plenty of street parking in this Germantown neighborhood filled with mansions. The name is Rigby Mansion at 523 E. Church Lane, Philadelphia, PA 19144. Famous for amazing house music shows, now they welcome the ecstatic dancers to this beautiful spot.
Line up is the same....
DJ Shango, Philly’s well-known and loved musical artist, is making a come back bringing the vibes to unite in our most beloved, ancient connection with ourselves, our community, and the Earth...to DANCE!
We will be warming up for our dance with ADNAN SHAMSI! It’s an honor to have Adnan Shamsi, co-creator of Ecstatic Dance New Jersey, who will be leading us into an activating flow...
We are so happy to welcome Dick Rubin from the band MINKA, born in Philadelphia, to share a unique sound bathing with us! While normally he plays dance music, he is also quite skilled with melodic, soothing sounds and this is what he going to be sharing with us.
✨✨✨✨✨✨
COVID protocols: We recognize that everyone is at a different opinion and level of comfort with their approach to covid and we want to create a safe experience for all. In this regard, we will be giving out colored wristbands so it's clear to the other dancers what level of social distancing you are comfortable with. Green is “ok at any distance”, yellow is “please ask first”, and red is “please respect my need for social distancing.” If you want to make it even more clear to your fellow attendees, you could wear the color distancing your seeking. Grab a green t-shirt, or a yellow hat...

What a joy it is to be moving and enjoy the company of people and dance (in person)!! We unite and come alive for Ecstatic dance; turning a quiet afternoon into an electric, grounding, energetic, life-giving experience. As we dance, there will be blankets and an alter set out in a lounge area for resting, reflection and relaxation. Afterwardalcohol-free, we’ll have a short closing circle and then invite everyone to eat some freshly prepared fruits and snacks as we say goodbye.
This is a dance as you wish, safe space, absolutely everyone is welcome event. We are a substance and alcohol-free event. We encourage no talking on the dance floor while we are in the flow of the event. This is organized by a group of dance and movement enthusiasts who want to build community through dance and appreciation for healthy living.

This community and experience foster both individual and collective growth. Encourage your friends to join us as we witness our own transformations.
What a strange, unexpected year it has been. Now that the weather is warming and we can gather outside more safely, we’re excited to begin regular events again. For now, the events are going to be outside and following this protocol for our highest good involved. With all this said, we are so so thankful to have the opportunity to gather and move collectively!!
