:: Merlin ::
As a lifelong dancer, Merlin understands the necessity of crafting dynamic flows that allow for many different planes of physical and emotional expression - ranging from intentional ecstatic dance waves, all the way to late-night warehouse throw-downs. He enjoys creating these experiences with many genres: trap and world bass infusions, progressive house and techno, latin and world beats, medicine music, and more.
Having toured up and down the West Coast, playing both ecstatic dances and festival stages, Merlin is here to make Magic, and express the dance of life through his unique sonic wizardry.

First time to an Ecstatic Dance? Here's an introduction to what we're about:
Ecstatic Dance is a community gathering for people who want to express themselves in a playful and artistic space with other people who value conscious connection, movement, and great music!
We create a dance/movement space that is inspiring and uplifting, without talking, alcohol or nightclub vibes. We encourage participants to utilize the Ecstatic Dance space as a laboratory for creative movement, unbridled self-expression, authentic connections and a healthy dose of sweat.
We hold a nonverbal, barefoot, alcohol-free container to keep the journey intentional and lucid. You can dance the night away and still wake up early to do awesome stuff in the world!
***
Guidelines:
1. No talking on the dance floor
2. Drug-Free, Smoke-Free, Alcohol-Free environment
3. No photos or videos, cellphones muted and out of sight
4. Respect for the space and for one another
5. Move your body however you wish!
6. You can dance alone, or with partners. (If you’d rather not dance with someone, thank them for the offer by placing your hands in prayer position at your heart)
***
What to Bring:
1. Loose-fitting clothes that let you move your body and free yourself
2. Water and a water bottle. You can refill it at the venue.
See you there!
