💜 Time:
7:30 pm -ED Doors open, PLEASE No early entry. Warm up to music and get to know our dance community.

⭐️Arrive on time, no later than 8 pm for opening circle so we can cover parameters for an accepting & non-judgmental space and welcome everyone warmly.
Bring: Water, yoga mat if you’d like to do some stretching, a pillow or bolster if you’d like something to sit on during opening/closing circle and earplugs if you need them, because we don’t want to just hear the music, we like to FEEL it!. No outdoor shoes on the dance floor. Clean indoor shoes are welcome.
Parking - Free lot parking
Movement & Safety Parameters:
•Set your judgment aside. Judgment usually requires punishment. It can disconnect us from ourselves as individuals, and others. Instead, we invite people to instead use curiosity and discernment to embrace the full emotional and physical human experience of yourself and others.
•Move as you wish - There is no right or wrong way to move in ecstatic dance. You can also choose to not move at all. Listen to your body, and let it do what it needs.
•No vices/devices- Leave your phones and other devices off and off the floor. You are taking the time to show up for yourself by attending, be as present as you possibly can be for yourself.
•Do not come intoxicated. Let the music intoxicate you instead. Alcohol and drugs are not permitted. This includes vaping and marijuana. This allows for a safe and consent based atmosphere.
•Non-conversational during dance - The only expression on the dance floor is physical. If you must talk to someone, take it out into the lobby. This allows the dancers to be fully into the music and their own movements. Singing and expressing feelings during music is welcome.
•Consent based - If you would like to dance with someone, make eye contact and give clear indication. If you do not want to dance with someone, or if you are ready to end dancing with partners, bow out by using Namaste hands. 🙏
•No Photos or videos during dance unless facilitator gains informed consent from the group.
• Please refrain from heavy perfumes or scents, as we will be in close proximity to one another and some people have severe allergies. The scent of Marijuana can especially be triggering.
