HANA WOLF is a singer, songwriter, artist and a newly fledged Ecstatic Dance DJ.

As an already established artist and musical maestra, Hana will be bringing beauty and heart to craft an epic dance journey for us all.

DOM ANTONINA is a facilitator and Ceremony Leader. Her work focusses on self love, self expression and shadow work integration. Over the last five years she has held space and led large workshops to integrate, embody and celebrate nature connection, self inquiry and healing.

ECSTATIC DANCE GUIDELINES

Ecstatic Dance is self-expression through free-form dance and movement. It’s an embodiment practice which brings awareness to and connects together heart, mind, body and soul; authentically connecting with your whole self and authentically connecting with others.

Our events are family friendly. All people and all abilities are welcome. 

We use the following guidelines to create a safe and held space for you to express the full spectrum of yourself, to express your uniqueness and to experience rejuvenation through movement, dance and sound:

- be here: no shoes
- be free: dance how you want / no judgement
- be present: no phones / cameras
- be clear: no intoxicants
- be embodied: no talking
- be consensual: respect boundaries / be aware of your own personal space and that of others
