Ecstatic Dance & Workshop

We are gathering on Nov 21st for an offering—a day to explore ourselves, our dance, and our being with fresh eyes. If you've been on the fence about joining, this day is for you. We'll bring the workshop right back to the foundation of conscious dance and explore the energy, patterns, and rhythms that reside in us.

First-timers: You are deeply welcome here. This workshop is perfect for beginners—there's nothing you need to know, no experience required, just a willingness to move and be moved.

Experienced dancers: This is your invitation to return to beginner's mind. Set aside what you think you know or have already learned. Drop your expertise. We are all starting at the beginning together. There's profound power in not-knowing, in being willing to discover something completely new even if you've danced a thousand times before.

The beauty of this practice is that we all arrive as equals on the dance floor. Your body, right now, exactly as it is—that's your teacher.

And here's the real talk: It's normal to feel uncomfortable. This is exactly why we do this work—to move through our patterns, not avoid them. Showing up is often the hardest part. Dancing vulnerably, moving like nobody's watching when everyone can see you—it's challenging. But we trust that we can welcome ourselves and each other into a non-judgmental space. You can move as your body allows—sit, stand, crawl—move as you and your body personally need.

About Ecstatic & Conscious Dance

Ecstatic and conscious dance invite us to explore ourselves through movement—who we are, how we show up, what energy moves through us. There are no steps to learn, no "right way" to move. Your body, exactly as it is, becomes your teacher.

This isn't performance. This is practice. Whether you're seeking meditation in motion, a full-body workout, or freedom from habitual patterns, you create this dance to be fully yours in whatever way you show up.

This workshop follows a wave pattern—moving through five distinct energetic states that teach us how to receive, give, let go, celebrate, and witness. We'll explore each rhythm, dancing through what emerges with curiosity and courage.

I encourage you to join for the complete journey—beginning, middle, and end. Without experiencing all five phases and the arc they create, the work may feel incomplete or disorienting. There's a reason we move through them in sequence: it's the container that allows for true transformation.
