**Ecstatic Dance – Inner Serenity** Stille im Inneren · Klarheit im Herzen · Frieden im Körper Am **Sonntag, 01. März 2026 um 18:00**, öffnen wir den Raum für Inner Serenity – eine Einladung, durch Bewegung, Klang und bewusste Präsenz zu deiner inneren Ruhe zurückzufinden. Inmitten von Wandel und Geschwindigkeit erinnern wir uns an jenen stillen Ort in uns, der unberührt bleibt. Ein Abend, der dich einlädt, Anspannung loszulassen, den Geist zu klären und dich wieder mit deinem natürlichen Gleichgewicht zu verbinden. Ecstatic Dance wird hier zu einer sanften und zugleich kraftvollen Reise – vom bewussten Ankommen über einen lebendigen Tanzbogen bis hin zu tiefer Integration. **Mitwirkende** 🌿 **Sabine Sonnenschein – Tanzeinleitung** Sabine liebt, lebt und unterrichtet die Verbindung von kaschmirischer tantrischer Weltsicht und Tanz als Lebenshaltung. Für sie ist Ecstatic Dance nicht nur individueller Ausdruck im Moment, sondern das bewusste Spüren eines gemeinsam kreierten Miteinanders. 🔥 **Shamantra aka. DJ Kobayashi – Ecstatic Dance DJ Set** Downtempo und tribal beats – sehr rhythmisch, mystisch und tiefgehend. Mit langjähriger Erfahrung als zentrale Figur unserer Community besitzt er ein feines Gespür und das Talent, Menschen genau dort abzuholen, wo sie stehen – und sie in einen kraftvollen, organischen Tanzfluss zu führen. 🌺 **Darkfeatherbird – Sound Journey** Eine der einzigartigsten Stimmen, die zu tiefer Innenkehr einlädt. Songwriting, das Verbindung schafft. Sanft, hochwertig, herzöffnend, tiefgehend und rein – ihre Klänge tragen in eine innere Stille und klare Integration. 📍 **Sonntag, 01.03.2026** 🕕 Start: 18:00 @ Vitality Base Vienna Leberstraße 118A, 1110 Wien **find.vitalitybase.at** **Programmablauf** 18:00 Ankommen in Stille 18:30 Anfangskreis 18:40 Tanzeinleitung mit Sabine Sonnenschein 19:00 Ecstatic Dance DJ Set mit Shamantra 21:00 Sound Journey mit Darkfeatherbird 21:30 Abschlusskreis & offener Raum 🌿 Mitgliederveranstaltung Förderbeitrag: freie Spende Werde vor Ort Mitglied um teilzunehmen **Links** Weitere Events: events.vitalitybase.at Sabine Sonnenschein: https://linktr.ee/sabine_sonnenschein Shamantra aka.

A grounded, embodied approach to Tango Argentino for beginners building foundations and improvers seeking clarity, depth, and freedom. **Every Sunday (except during our Tango Immersion Weekends), we explore the essentials of Tango Argentino from a mindful, embodied approach. Focusing not only on what to do, but on how and why we move the way we do in this dance.** ✨ No previous experience required, just curiosity to work with essential principles that allow you to understand the Tango Argentino language sooner, and adapt easier to real social dance situations. ✨ Experienced dancers refine technique and efficiency of their movements. ✨ **You can come with or without a dance partner**, and learn the role(s) of your choice (Jessica encourages to learn both). ✨ **Each class is followed by our Focused Práctica**, a guided practice gathering for all levels, where you can take time to socialize and integrate what you learned, ask questions, receive feedback, and practice in a relaxed and supportive environment. ### **Dates & Time** **Sundays** (except during the Tango Immersion intensive weekends \* check [agenda](https://www.jessicagerdel.com/#agenda) for specific dates) **19:00–20:00** Tango Basics Class **20:00–22:00** Practice Gathering with guided exercises and feedback ### **📍 Location** EWTO Akademie – **Haydngasse 1, 1060 Wien** ### **Registration** Drop-in possible. Registration at jessicagerdel.com is recommended. €20 per person per class €15 per person per Guided Practice session **€85 pack of 4 classes in a row + Guided Practice sessions after each class** (e.g. if you start on Sunday Feb 22nd, it includes the classes of Feb 22 + March 1, 15 and 22 –on March 8 there's no class because of the Tango Immersion Weekend) Young students and people with limited income can request a 20-30% partial scholarship via email or in person. PS. This course doesn't include classes on March 8th and April 19th because of Jessica's [Tango Immersion](https://www.jessicagerdel.com/tangoimmersion) Weekends. She'll guide you on which workshops are suitable for beginners if you want to join us those weekends too. **Teaching approach** Spoiler alert: This is not about copying and memorizing steps. Jessica's teaching focus is on body awareness, connection, and developing good habits from the start — so what you learn works in real social dance situations and truly supports your dance in the long term. **Check out more about her work at [jessicagerdel.com](https://www.jessicagerdel.com/) and on [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/tangoimmersion/)/[Instagram](http://www.instagram.com/abrazatango): Abrazatango.** Looking forward to seeing you there!

Thank you for visiting this event page! * Are you an advanced badminton player? If yes - WELCOME! * The earlier you sign up, the bigger your chance to reserve a place - once 9 other players have signed up already, you move to the waiting list. * Once the waiting list has 3 or more members, I will try to book an additional court, but no guarantees. I need to close the registration 24h before the event as I will then have to decide whether to cancel any court due to a shortage of players. You can still contact me if you want to play though. The fee per player will be €10.00 for 2 hours as the cost of both shuttles and court bookings have increased. But this should now cover also shuttles used during play. Please be on time as a curtesy to the other players. In addition, if you are on the players' list and don't come (i.e. no show), you will be automatically excluded from this group.

## To secure your spot RSVP is not enough. To properly sign up and secure your spot, please fill out the Google Form: [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdIc0O0jyCmmWvoTlrCu1HN1ClnMHyKnLvRUMQmxq6O4JLC7g/viewform?usp=publish-editor](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdIc0O0jyCmmWvoTlrCu1HN1ClnMHyKnLvRUMQmxq6O4JLC7g/viewform?usp=publish-editor) Spots are limited.

Improv depends on group energy — commitment matters. \*\*\* Improv theatre is one of the best ways to step out of your comfort zone — while actually having fun. In this workshop we’ll focus on: * Storytelling techniques * Scene work * Playfulness and connection * Understanding how comedy works No experience needed. Just curiosity and willingness to try. \*\*\* ## Workshop Structure **First half:** Warm-up games and storytelling exercises to build energy, trust and spontaneity. **Second half:** Scene work. We’ll apply what we explored and create improvised moments together. It’s interactive. You’ll be on your feet. You’ll participate. \*\*\* ## Break & Sharing You’re welcome to bring food and drinks to share during the break. Let’s keep it relaxed and social. Improv works best when we connect not just on stage, but off stage. \*\*\* About talkin’ talkin' is an event series focusing on personal development and social adventures, hosted by amateurs and non-professionals. Every participant has the chance to lead their own talkin' event! We believe that the best way to grow as a person is to go out of your comfort zone, and have fun along the way. You don't think that's possible? Come and join us and see for yourself! The English speaking group invites internationals in Vienna, but also Austrians who enjoy speaking English. We are a group of people who organize monthly Social Adventures, everyone is free to join. This event will be held in English, please respect each other and speak English only. German events will be organized in the future as well. \*\*\* To stay updated about all our events join our Telegram :). [https://t.me/czc_vienna](https://t.me/czc_vienna "https://t.me/czc_vienna")
