DANCING EVERY 1ST AND 3RD SATURDAY NIGHTS <3 Tribalheart Ecstatic dance creates space for free-form movement in a chat free zone where you can dive deeply into the heart, reconnecting, expressing, dancing in and out, up and down, learning to let go of anything and everything that holds you back from yourSelf and inner freedom. Let the energy move you, let the spirit of the heart guide you. There is space to dance alone and no pressure to connect with anyone else, just be yourself and honour what you need in the moment. This night is an inspiration and fusion of club culture, dancing yoga, active meditation, cardio fitness, Ecstatic trance dance (blindfolds available) and a sacred Nataraj. If you choose to connect, it is a chance to meet others without words from a place of movement, meditation, energy and soul; eyes and heart wide open. ### We will start the evening with a welcoming warmup to relax the body and mind. Together we will set an intention for the evening inviting the heart to open and awaken within us thus creating sacred space for all. For those that wish to partake, we will enjoy and deepen our intention with a short Cacao ceremony. (The cacao is used to take us deeper into our body, awakening our senses, connecting us to heart energy and aiding a spring in our step) We also embark on some dynamic breathwork to fire us up for the evening. \- Please leave at least 2 hours after eating a heavy meal if drinking cacao\. -Please do not drink alcohol before the event as it is contraindicated with some of the breathwork techniques we practice We inject passion into sourcing the music for our events and aim to deliver an eclectic mix of genres for your heart. From tribal to electronic and everything in between we aim to assist a natural flow peaking and resting to mirror the rhythm and energy of life. Prepare to shake, spin, whirl and twirl. The music becomes the facilitator during the wild ecstatic dance ending with moments of stillness into silence where we can rest and breathe together Each DJ has their own sound and energy to be shared, making each night unique and different... 18/4/2026-DJ ATMO 2/5/2026- DJ TARA Admission **New Venue**-Doors open from 630pm and we start at 7pm.

***N.B. Banquet is open to all - participants are invited to bring a vegan dish and recipe to share; in exchange for a free artwork edition*** This collective performance is organised by **[Tiziana Pers](https://www.instagram.com/tizianapers)** as part of ‘[Drive Your Plow Over the Bones of the Dead](https://www.instagram.com/mariahinel/p/DW3vlnuje3R)’, a group exhibition exploring animal agency, curated by host **[Maria Hinel](https://mariahinel.com)** at **[Hypha Gallery 1](https://hyphastudios.com/hypha-gallery1-at-no-1-poultry-2)** ([map](https://maps.google.com/?cid=5994705386449023815)). Each participant is invited to think of a dish without meat or fish or other animal derivatives, which represents an important moment in one's life, to transcribe the recipe, and to bring the described dish to the gallery. In exchange for their dish and recipe, each performer would receive a **numbered artwork edition multiple signed by the artist**, depicting an animal that she had saved from being killed. The dishes will be shared among all those present, in a real collective meal composed of a multitude of gestures and memories. The collection of recipes thus ideally contains a plurality of memories and notes aimed at imagining a possible banquet. The very gesture of sitting at a common table without pain, where future prospects and reflections can be shared, is today symbolically even more relevant. [Nourishment for a Post-Anthropocentric Banquet](https://www.instagram.com/rave_residency/p/DXIlAQnCHC5) is therefore a collective action that questions possible considerations, starting with the consumption of meat and fish on ecosystems and its role in climate change (which is beginning to show its cruellest face), and at the same time wants to imagine a humanity capable of coexistence, and no longer just existence. **Exhibition is on view until 18th April** Opening Hours: Wednesday-Saturday 11 AM-6 PM.
