A Night of Ecstatic Dance where we honour the body and its divine expression through movement.NEW ARTIST ALERT: I am thrilled to announce my next collaboration with the talented, fun and playful Charlotte DJ Clay Papa.
Clay Papa is Claire Nagy-Kato (she/they/Clay/Claire). She is a Charlotte-based DJ, dancer, somatic guide, and intentional gatherer. Claire has a lifelong range of movement, performance, and healing arts experience, including 25 years in the professional dance discipline and 16 years practicing yoga, 5 of which she spent teaching. Clay has a breadth of experience in improvisational movement, comedy, and spoken word as well as subject-matter expertise in sustainability, cultural resilience, and rewilding. Her interdisciplinary curiosities have shown her the power of play, safety, breath, and exploration of our senses and their essential roles in returning humanity to wholeness.
She studied ritual DJing with internationally-celebrated DJ, Tasha Blank, through her 9-month embodied DJ school, Powerhouse DJ School. Clay Papa specializes in DJing and facilitating and liberating dance floors, intentional gatherings, ceremonies, and immersive experiences for transformation.
Doors open at 6:30 so we can begin preparing and adorning our bodies with glow paint to tap into our own inner luminescence. This is an opportunity for each person to add another layer of self expression to this container. Dress to express, we welcome the wild, the free, the unadulterated version of you. We will be providing body paint and feel free to bring anything else you'd like to use to adorn your body.
