WHAT IS ECSTATIC DANCE?
Ecstatic Dance is a free-flowing and non-judgmental space where music and movement merge to unlock creativity, release emotions, and connect with yourself and others. There are no steps to follow, just let your body respond to the rhythm and explore the freedom of self-expression. It’s a celebration of presence, community, and pure joy. Join us for an uplifting and transformative journey through the power of dance.
