Equinox meets Moon Ecstatic Dance - the last dance of the season

Equinox Celebration meets New Moon Ecstatic Dance for a New Earth

According to the ancient Khoi tradition, their community gathered every New Moon to co-create a sacred space under the stars where dance and music would take them to transcendental states: ecstasis, trance, co-regulation and healing. This ritual inspired New Moon Ecstatic Dance - a collaboration of conscious dance DJs, contact improv facilitators, fire team and dancing humans.

_______________

Ecstatic dance wave is designed to rise the rhythm in you, make your blood flow and evoke deeply nourishing ecstatic states. Gabriel Roth classified the rhythmic patters of flowing, staccato, chaos, lyrical and stillness, but indigenous people of the planet long before practiced ecstatic dance as a main community ritual. Modern ecstatic dance DJ set is a variety of genres, weaved together sonically so to encourage you to loose yourself in dance and return revived, flowy and content.

Our Values:

Zero Waste. Respect the ocean. Bring what you need and take it all home.

Zero Alcohol. Because dancing sober is its own revolution.

Zero Colonialism: A commitment to honouring indigenous movement traditions, the land we dance on, and the communities we support through this fundraiser.
