Set in the wonderful Lily Hill Park, join us for Ecstatic Dance & Cacao- a Sound and Movement Journey using Silent Disco headphones.

The Space
Lily Hill Park is a Green Flag Award winning 23-hectare public open space and local wildlife site. With a scented ornamental garden, woodlands and exotic trees and plants, it’s a stunning space to dance in and explore. With beautiful carvings it’s also home to England’s longest picnic bench, carved from a single piece of wood!
We dance in front of Lily Hill House. This is a really special space, where clear skies allow us to dance towards the sunset. The headsets give us the freedom to move and dance through the trees, to embrace our own personal experience while grounding in nature.
The Dance
Movement is conscious, intuitive and spontaneous as you allow the vibrations of the sound to resonate in whichever way feels right for you. The invitation is to disconnect the mind and connect with the body freely, noticing any self-judgement and any fears around judgement from others. The evening will close with a mini sound bath and a short closing circle with fruit, and some optional time to socialise.
Together we co-create a safe container, offering respect to our fellow dancers and their space, keeping to the guidelines of no chat, no shoes, no drugs, no alcohol.
The Music
Each dance is a soundwave journey, with the music being intuitively chosen from an eclectic mix of different genres. The experience is less about the type of music and more about how all aspects of your being relates to it. You'll be invited to be curious with your exploration of your body and movements, to bring moment by moment awareness to what's moving through you.
A Few Things to Mention
This is an over 18's, safe, respectfully alcohol and drug free environment. No phones, no chat! We move/dance barefoot.

Ecstatic Dance Berkshire has been running for 4 years. One word that often comes up in our closing circles is... Medicine. With Ecstatic Dance, the combination of heart opening cacao, conscious movement and a non judgmental, safe space... creates a magical opening where we feel able to reveal our true selves. Through Medicine Dance we've been bringing this together with other wonderful Medicine like Breathwork, Mantras and Connection.
Our Ecstatic Dance Berkshire Medicine Dance was born in 2024 when a group of beautiful souls gathered together to dance, connect, experience true freedom and heal, in this hidden paradise in Windlesham.
