We’re so excited for our March 15 dance to awaken our Spring intentions in community on the road to our big Spring Equinox celebration! This month we welcome ✨𝔻𝕒𝕞𝕚𝕒𝕟𝕒 ✨from Philly for the first time to grace us our ears and bodies with a DJ set + live tribal instrumentals! 🪈🪘 @damiana_music 🌼 Damiana is a Vessel of Sonic Alchemy. Through the music he weaves, you will be transported to ethereal realms of transcendent vibrations—a soul-stirring journey through space and time. As a passionate DJ, Damiana crafts immersive soundscapes that guide you from deep, grounding rhythms to expansive, heart-opening melodies. His music is an invitation to surrender, reconnect with your body, and embrace the liberating freedom of movement.
🔊 A Set to Bridge Worlds. Prepare to be immersed in a unique blend of tribal instrumentation, soul-healing mantras, earth-shaking bass, and psychedelic trances. Damiana’s sets are designed to bridge the Ancient and the Modern, the Earthly and the Cosmic, the Mortal and the Eternal—a sonic experience that transcends boundaries and opens portals of connection.
❤️ Music as Medicine. This is more than a dance; it is a journey of healing, expression, and unity. Everyone is welcome—step into the sound and let your spirit soar.

What is Ecstatic Dance?
Ecstatic Dance is a freeform dance meditation that allows you to embody your most joyful and playful self in a safe container. You can expect to hear music with influences from all around the world and eras. The intent is to create a sacred dance container where we can expand our consciousness, build community and allow our inner child to dance and be free for all ages and walks of life.
Our dance is family friendly and we encourage people to bring your kids and the whole family for dance and connection!
The guidelines of the container are simple:
- Consent first! ALWAYS wait for consent before dancing with someone. By entering this space, you are not consenting to dancing with anyone other than yourself. If you don’t wish to dance with someone, we encourage you to put your hands in a prayer position to thank them for the offer and move along.
- No shoes. Grounding us into the earth and preventing toes from being stepped on.
- No chit chat on the dance floor to keep the energy flowing. Screaming out in joy is encouraged! If you wish to make deeper connections, the chill out space is available for low volume conversation.
- No alcohol or substances. This keeps us present with each other and our consent boundaries.
- No photos or video of the dance floor. This allows everyone to fully express without fear of judgement. Photos and videos of the DJs and performers are allowed with consent.
- All forms of movement or rest is encouraged! Go relax in the chill out space with a blanket and pillow to take a sensory break or take a moment to stretch in the corner of the dance floor. The music will be waiting for you when you’re ready to return!
Let us know if you have any questions 🙂
