Inclusion & Guidelines

Avalon Dance Odyssey aims to create a brave, inclusive, and safer space for self-expression through movement.

Participants accept inherent emotional/physical risks and are encouraged to take responsibility for their actions.

Agreements

By participating in this experience you accept our agreements that help to create a more safe and brave space, stated below. 

• Be present (no phones, cameras on the dancefloor except for our agreed media team)
• Be embodied (no talking on the dancefloor or directly next to it)
• Be clear (strictly substance and alcohol free - including marijuana and psychoactive substances - for the full duration. If found using substances you will receive one warning,  then asked to leave. If unsure please get in touch)
• Be consensual (seek a clear 'yes' when interacting with others, aim to listen and respect difference)
• Be here (take care of the land and each other, please take your own rubbish & recycling with you)
• Be free (let go of judgment of yourself & each other)

Ecstatic Dance and similar events offer a powerful space for emotional expression and can be profoundly therapeutic. However, it is important to remember that these gatherings are not a substitute for professional trauma therapy or clinical mental healthcare. While movement and community can support a healing journey, individuals working through deep-seated trauma are encouraged to seek the guidance of a qualified mental health professional to ensure they receive the specialized care and psychological safety required for their specific needs.
