EDB Sundays Relaunch
w/ OSARA & Guests
Sun 18 September | 15:00 - 18:00
Scout Hall (58th Bristol Scout Group), Eastville, Bristol
EDB unites the worlds of Ecstatic Dance, diverse dance music and sound system culture.
Using the practice of Ecstatic Dance we create a held space for you to express, expand and experience rejuvenation through movement, dance and sound.
The experience is a modern day ritual where the communion of people, movement and sound serve as mediums for transformation, liberation and soul invigorating celebration.
Our prayer. Our practice. Our ritual.
Our community gatherings are sober and suitable for all ages, abilities and people.
Come as you are. Dance as you please. Be your unique self.
OSARA | DJ & Ceremony Leader
After an busy, epic and expansive Summer tour at festivals and retreats, OSARA is happy to be landing home in Bristol for the Autumn.
Honouring the rich diversity of music that can be found in the UK and around world, OSARA creates powerful and transformative dance journeys that are ever evolving and responding to the spirit of time, community and place.
Pushing the musical boundaries of the conscious dance scene on these lands and receiving deep inspiration from a broad spectrum genres, Rave styles and the rich underground dance music culture of the UK, you never know what to expect.
OSARA has DJ’d and facilitated at Ecstatic Dances such as: Los Angeles, London, Helsinki and Dallas to name a few. He's a popular and resident DJ for the likes of Ecstatic Dance UK, Boomtown, Buddhafield, Lovejam as well as other festivals and events.

I loved the space and that you do this on Sunday morning. It was my first time and I would have liked more orientation re: schedule on arriving, or in an email. The event began at 10.30 but it didn't. During the dancing, three people were chatting. I didn't think a microphone was needed for speaking, it is nicer to hear a natural voice. Otherwise, I really enjoyed dancing and plan to come back in future, thank you.

— Hey Philippa. Thanks for your feedback. The schedule for the session is included in the ticket confirmation email. Doors open at 10:30 and we play warm up music between 10:30 and 11:00 for people to arrive and stretch. The Opening Circle begins at 11:00. We always announce the Ecstatic Dance guidelines at the Opening Circle which include that's it's a non verbal space during the journey, however, some people disrespect this guideline. We try our best to ask people to be quiet or go else where if they really need to chat. We use the microphone to make sure everyone can hear the facilitator because sometimes not everyone can hear when the microphone is not used. We hope this helps. Thank you for joining the session. We hope that you come and dance with us again. Gratitude, Team EDB |

What a nourishing experience, I was feeling a bit introverted and wanted to experience the space in more of a gentle way. I loved to be able to relax on the sofas and absorb the incredible vocals, to pick some oracle cards and to then soak up the incredible Sound Bath. Thank you 🙏🏼
