MELTER // Music Facilitator

Steven Melter is a bass forward explorer of the sonic realms here to guide you on a journey through the dance dimensions. Playing frequent ecstatic dances in Golden Gate Park for Ecstaturday and around the bay area for years, he has also been seen playing internationally, bringing the west coast ecstatic vibes around the world.

His music focuses on the dancer, helping to unlock solo and contact dance moves that are otherwise hard to access. Through a conversation with the dancefloor, he can be heard playing classical, ambient, funk, soul, trap, hip hop, house, deep house, all wrapped up with a layer of medicine music. He is not here to play music- he is here to help you play WITH the music. See you out on the dance floor.

𝐁𝐑𝐈𝐆𝐈𝐓𝐓𝐄 𝐖𝐈𝐓𝐓𝐌𝐄𝐑 // 𝐌𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐅𝐚𝐜𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐚t𝐨𝐫

International dance artist, instructor, performer, and transformational movement guide - Her journey has taken her across more than ten countries—from the studios of Broadway Dance Center in New York to the somatic richness of Faculdade Angel Vianna in Rio de Janeiro. Rooted in contemporary dance and Brazilian social dances, her path weaves through somatic education, contact improvisation, bodywork, yoga, gyrokinesis, and transpersonal psychology.

Brigitte's passion is in integrating these worlds—guiding people into deeper connection with themselves through embodied movement and creative expression. As part of her ongoing research, she developed Liquid Leading—a practice that transcends traditional gender roles and invites each dancer to speak their truth through movement. It transforms dance into a co-creative language where stories can be exchanged, not just performed.

"To me, dance is more than art or fitness—it’s a gateway. A tool for awareness, expression, healing, and transformation. I hold space for play, experimentation, and deep listening—so you can return to your body, your power, and the ever-evolving dance of your life."
Let’s move together—and discover what’s possible when you remember the wisdom already living within you!✨

All are Welcome.

Ecstatic Dance is a Freeform Conscious Dance,

Mixed by a Seasoned DJ for a Continuous Sonic Journey.

Move however you wish, without verbal guidance, shoes, or booze.

Music will flow through various Tempos, Genres, Intensities, and Emotions, so that Dancers may Experience, Express, and Transform their own Energies on the Dancefloor Together.

Ecstatic Dance can be your:

1. Physical Exercise

2. Mental Therapy

3. Connection to Spirit

4. Social Connection with Others

5. Personal Connection with Self

We only ask that you refrain from:

1. Talking on the Dancefloor

2. Using your Phone

3. Wearing Shoes

4. Using Substances (Be Yourself!)

A Consensual Environment

*** As we come together in sacred movement practice, let us remember to embody the values of consent and mindfulness. May we dance in reverence for each other's boundaries, always seeking clear permission before engaging in physical connection, and maintaining awareness of the sacred space we share with our fellow dancers.

If at any point you find yourself in need of support or comfort, know that you are not alone. Our Movement Church community is here to assist and guide you. Simply reach out to one of us, and we will do our utmost to provide a safe and nurturing environment for your journey.
