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.
Ace Collectiv replied

— 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 🙏🏼
