Ecstatic Dance Nashville | DJ GOLDENWAV & Chakralesque | Feb 16, 2025

🎆 Ecstatic Dance is your chance to connect deeply with yourself and others through the magic of music and movement. Our welcoming, substance-free environment is perfect for all forms of expression and fosters a strong sense of community through shared experiences. Whether you’re a seasoned dancer or new to ecstatic dance, this is the place where you can truly let loose. 🎆

GOLDNWAV sets are a sonic exploration that moves the body and breath into new realms of expression. With powerful basslines, hypnotic trap, worldly rhythms, and organic, shimmering textures, each journey invites you to reconnect with your true self through dance.

Before our regularly scheduled Ecstatic Dance event, our host Kacey Cardin will be leading EDN's very first cooperative Dance Lab experience called "Chakralesque".

Chakralesque is a source of joy, empowerment, and healing through a sensual, spiritual workout for body, mind, and spirit. This class is suitable for all genders and levels of dance experience. Participants will receive Reiki and energy work as they dance.

This Dance Lab is not included with your Ecstatic Dance Nashville entry. See ticket info below.

ABOUT GOLDNWAV: Drawing from 15+ years of experience as a Professional Dancer turned Somatic Dance Guide, her DJ sets flow naturally from her deep understanding of movement and energy. Her music creates a space where dance, breath, and rhythm come together to heal and elevate the soul.

ABOUT KACEY: Kacey is an opera singer, producer and performer in the world's first opera burlesque troupe, writer, energy worker, and certified executive coach who created Chakralesque as a way to blend all of the healing modalities that transformed her own life.

🎉 Everyone is welcome, rain or shine!

DANCE GUIDELINES & AGREEMENTS:

• Be Clear: We are a substance-free event. Come sober in heart & body to experience the power of dance.
• Be Consensual: We value your choice. Get a clear yes before involving others in your dance.
• Be Present: No phones, cameras or talking in the dance space. Wild non-verbal communication is always welcome. Please move all conversations—even small ones— to the lobby.
• Be Neat: We ask you to place your shoes and jackets neatly in the designated area of the lobby and only bring small valuables and closed water bottles into the dance space (where they can be stored in a designated corner of the dance space).
• Be Responsible (for your Children): We welcome children with open arms! We ask that a parent or a designated adult stay present with younger children throughout the dance. They are not allowed to roam the building, lobby, or the dance hall freely. Older children who are mature enough to abide by the no talking rule may dance with less supervision, but ultimately parents are responsible for their child(ren)’s whereabouts, safety, and noise level.

PHOTO/VIDEO POLICY

• In order to provide a space most conducive to healing and full self expression, attendees may not take photos or videos during the dance and we ask that phones be left outside the dance space. We have a policy that allows a designated EDN staff or volunteer and the DJ to record videos and take photos during the opening and closing circles and during the first 15-20 minutes of the dance to capture content that can be shared online to help build our community and show new people what Ecstatic Dance is all about. The photos and videos taken will be limited to the front half of the room closest to the DJ, allowing any attendees who wish to not show up on camera to remain in the back half of the room for that duration, if they desire.

🎈 Let’s make magic on the dance floor! See you there! 🎈
