Feel Moved to Dance Friday evening ecstatic dance in Hackney Wick with DJ Jane Latham
About this Event

Release the week. Dance into the weekend.

Join us on an exhilarating journey, where music becomes a potent catalyst for exploration, creativity and self-expression - where anything feels possible, and all of us is welcome.

Following a facilitated warm-up and guided meditation, we’ll flow into a free-form ecstatic dance wave —sometimes soft, sometimes wild—always alive.

The live DJ set will build an immersive soundscape, from ambient vibes to global rhythms, deep, melodic house and techno - blending rich, emotive melodies with surging peaks, calling us to shake off physical and emotional tensions and let go into movement.

No steps to follow, no experience needed - simply be yourself.

Finally, we’ll drop into a nourishing period of deep relaxation, with a soothing crystalline sound bath, to integrate and ground the journey, before coming together in a closing circle.

After the dance, you're encouraged to stay for an informal gathering, where healthy drinks and snacks will be available, plus an alcohol-free bar.

ABOUT YOUR DJ and FACILITATOR

Jane Latham has a deeply embodied sense of the transformative power of dance, stemming from her involvement in London's vibrant house music scene back in the 90s. For the past several years she has been combining her lively enthusiasm for dance music and DJing, her years of training in spiritual and movement practices and experience as a psychotherapist to create uniquely nourishing and supportive spaces for you to connect deeply with your body.

She intuitively weaves deeply emotive and expansive musical journeys, blending rich, soul-stirring soundscapes with global rhythms, deep and melodic house beats, inviting you to shake off physical and emotional tensions and let go into movement – to feel fully alive.

Known for her Dancing Freedom woodland dances, she has also played at other events including Ecstatic Dance UK, Tribalheart, Rumble Festival.
