ECSTATIC DANCE BRISTOL OPEN AIR: LAUNCH EVENT

ECSTATIC DANCE BRISTOL OPEN AIR

Dancing in nature, on the earth, in the sun.

After a much needed time of slowing down, reflection and spending time with close family and friends, we are excited to return with some outdoor dancing while the weather is good.

➤ 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, body and heart; authentically connecting with self and other.

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 / if it's not a clear yes, it's a no

Respect the boundaries of yourself and others. Take responsibility for yourself, be aware of others and be mindful of their personal space.
