Flowy EDM music will be played. Ecstatic dance is a freeform, substance-free movement practice where participants are invited to let go of judgment, step out of their heads, and move however their bodies naturally respond to music.

Unlike a class or club scene, there are no steps to learn, no talking on the dance floor, and no pressure to perform—just a safe, welcoming space to explore self-expression, release stress, and connect with others through rhythm and energy.

Typically danced barefoot, the experience often follows a musical journey that rises and falls like a wave, carrying dancers through moments of high-energy release and quieter, meditative reflection, ending with grounding or stillness.

At its heart, ecstatic dance is less about “dancing well” and more about finding freedom, joy, and presence through movement.
