ECSTATIC DANCE

Ecstatic Dance is about self-expression through free-form dance and movement. It’s a movement meditation which brings together the awareness of mind, heart and body; authentically connecting with self and others.

Our events are family friendly. Everyone and all abilities are welcome. 

We use the following guidelines to create a safe, held and sacred space for you to express, expand and 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

- our sessions are held in public park. We have signs to explain what we're doing and to ask other park users to not film us during the session. The EDB team has the responsibility to monitor this and to ask park users who are filming, to politely stop doing so.

The invitation with these sessions, is to show up, take ownership of what we’re doing and dance as a community on our land. Claim our space and claim our right to dance wherever we need to. Fear, discomfort or shame may arise, so let’s honour these feelings, let them move and let them go with the practice and power of DANCE! Let’s dance whatever it is we need to dance! All of it. The full spectrum of ourselves! It’s all welcome on the dance floor!

Remember, you are amazing and you are welcome exactly as you are.  See you in the dance…

OSARA + Team EDB
