Ecstatic Dance, Cacao Ceremony, Meditation, Tea & Snacks
Cacao Ceremony, Meditation & Free Flow Ecstatic Dance — connect, unwind & move freely into your full expression
Our hearts are dancing again.
We invite you to an evening of connection, presence, and embodied movement.
A gentle ceremonial space to arrive, to feel, and to let go — supported by ceremonial cacao, meditation, and free flow ecstatic dance.
The dance is free and intuitive.
An invitation to follow your body and the flow of the music, in your own way and at your own pace.
After the dance, we gather for a soft closing with tea and small snacks — a moment to land, connect, and share the space together.
This is a sober event.
### **What this space offers**
* A heart-opening cacao ceremony
* A guided meditation to arrive and ground
* A free flow ecstatic dance journey
* A conscious, sober, and judgment-free space
* Connection, stillness, and community
* A gentle community chillout with tea and small snacks after the dance
No dance experience is needed. You are welcome exactly as you are.
### **About Shania Shamanica & the space**
Shania Shamanica creates and holds ceremonial spaces rooted in embodiment, presence, and connection, together with her partner.
Their work is guided by a shared love for ritual, conscious movement, and the simple truth of being fully human.
Through ceremonies, music, workshops, and creative expression, they invite people to move, feel, and express themselves freely — without expectation or judgment.
Inspired by many travels and encounters with different cultures around the world, their spaces weave together diverse influences, ancient wisdom, and modern embodied practice.
These inspirations are reflected in the music, the rituals, and the way the space is held — grounded, heart-led, and open.
At the core of this work is the wish to create containers where people can simply be as they are, reconnect with themselves, and meet others in honesty, presence, and care.
### **Practical notes**
Please bring a cup for the cacao and water for yourself, both for the ceremony and the dance.
Staying well hydrated throughout the evening is important.
We will also have additional water and a few cups available on site, in case you forget yours or feel the need for more.
Please wear comfortable clothing that you feel good moving in.
It can be nice to bring something warm and cozy for the closing.
If you wish, you are welcome to bring a small snack to share for the community chillout at the end.

BREAK DANCE x HIIT Work Out - ALL LEVELS!!!
**Combining a variety of TopRock break dance moves in the format of HIIT training, this class will be like no other you have taken! Specifically created with non-break dancers in mind, this class is fun, engaging and totally beginner friendly!** 🤸♀️

So this will be a great introduction to breaking for beginners or those wishing to expand their breakdance skills.

Dilli Se Döner Tak - Hindi Stand-up Comedy show by Ayush Kulshrestha
You’ve seen him headline **Desi Democracy – Hindi comedy show** and host Hindi open mics in Berlin, mixing **sharp satire** with **playful crowd work** and **deeply relatable observations.**
Now watch **Ayush Kulshrestha** bring it all together in his first solo hour — ***Dilli Se Döner Tak***.
After a packed Berlin show last November, this hour is back for one special night — before heading out to other German cities.
🗣️ *Performed in Hindi / Hinglish.*
**About the show**
A rib-tickling and very Desi comedy journey from Delhi to Berlin — navigating culture shocks, job hunts, dating disasters, getting diagnosed with ADHD, dealing with indian parents and political absurdities sprinkled along the way.
Expect **smart satires, dark-ish truths, and some delightful honesty** about life between two worlds.
The night wraps up with a **Bollywood jam session**, where the audience joins in for a sing-along — turning the show into a complete Desi evening.
**About the comic**
Ayush started performing stand-up in 2019 and, since 2022, has been running Berlin’s only Hindi comedy line-up show, **Desi Democracy**, which has toured to Munich and Erlangen with sold-out performances.
After opening for **Atul Khatri, Karunesh Talwar, and Gaurav Gupta**, he’s now back home in Berlin with his first full-length solo special.

Chitta Walks - Awareness in Motion
Chitta Walks is for people whose days move fast, while the mind never fully lands. Thoughts keep looping even when nothing is urgent. The body moves, but attention is elsewhere. Over time, this disconnect drains clarity and ease.
This walk is a simple reset.
We meet in Berlin’s Tiergarten and walk at a gentle pace. Parts of the walk are in silence, with light guidance and a few short prompts. The walk itself is the practice, bringing body and mind back into the same moment.
No apps. No performance. Just a clear space to slow down and notice what is happening.
If you want to slow down without withdrawing from life, join a Chitta Walk.
✨ **What to expect (approx. 90 minutes):**
* A short arrival and orientation
* A guided silent walk (phones off, no conversation)
* One concise science-based impulse on attention or stress
* Optional reflection in pairs or small groups
* A simple takeaway or experiment for daily life
🚶**Who this is for:**
* Professionals, creatives, and people in transition.
* People who feel mentally busy and want more clarity and balance.
* Those curious about mindfulness, but grounded and practical.
* Anyone comfortable with silence and gentle self observation.
🔔 **Practical notes:**
* Duration: 60-90 minutes
* Wear comfortable shoes and weather-appropriate clothing
* No prior experience needed
* Group size is limited to keep the space quiet and focused
🧭 **Facilitator:**
My name is Partha Sarathi, you can call me PS. I have lived in Berlin for over 12 years. With a background in physics and materials science, my interest in mindfulness grew through personal experience with stress and health challenges. I facilitate the space and structure of the walk, inviting shared exploration rather than instruction.
🤔 **Why Chitta Walks?**
Chitta is a Sanskrit word referring to the mind or field of awareness, used here in a practical, non-religious sense.
Chitta Walks is about noticing how the mind works by slowing down and walking together. Mindful walking makes thought patterns visible in real time, while moving and sensing in the world.
The name points to a simple capacity: noticing what is happening in the mind without immediately trying to fix, judge, or optimize it.
🌿 **Possible effects:**
A calmer nervous system.
Clearer attention.
A felt sense of being more present in your body.
Subtle insights into how your mind reacts under everyday conditions.
A quieter, more grounded way of moving through the city.
**Come as you are. Walk. Notice. Leave with a little more space inside.**

Self-Love: Confidence Through Expression
Confidence can be cultivated in many ways—through reflection, conversation, creativity, and practice. In this Confidence Lab session, we’ll explore one powerful pathway: **building confidence from the inside out through physical expression and movement**.
This experience is designed to help you reconnect with your body as a source of insight, self-trust, and presence. We’ll begin by grounding into what’s bringing you here, creating space to notice how your body is showing up and what it’s holding. From there, you’ll be guided through accessible movement exercises that invite awareness and choice—isolating different parts of the body, experimenting with movement, and practicing what it feels like to take up space intentionally.
Next, you’ll participate in a small-group dance lesson led in a supportive, low-pressure environment. No dance experience is needed. The focus is not on performance or perfection, but on expression, curiosity, and allowing yourself to move with confidence as you are.
We’ll close with a reflective group discussion, exploring what emerged during the experience and how these insights can be applied beyond the studio—how you inhabit your body, how you carry yourself, and how you show up in everyday life.
**What to know:**
* Wear comfortable clothes and shoes that you feel good moving in
* No dance experience required
* Light snacks and beverages will be provided
This session is for anyone interested in deepening their relationship with confidence by listening to their body, expanding their capacity for self-expression, and practicing self-love as an embodied experience.
