WHO:
Ecstatic Dance Houston consists of 3 main facilitators (DJ'shamans), SunShine (Sydney), Morning Glory (Nadine), and Bruce (of the Flying Turtle Dance Seattle), and an incredible diverse community of loving young hearted souls of All Ages... that would be YOU!
We are a Neo-Post-Yogi-Shamanic-Urban-Groove-Tribe ~ Combining our need for Exercise with our need for Connection, Contribution, Acceptance, Creativity, Authenticity, AND, quite frankly, FUN!
We believe in the power of music & dance to transform our planet for the better, creating peace within ourselves, our community and our world!
It's Working & You're Invited to Join Us!
WHAT IS IT?
Our Houston Ecstatic Dance (freestyle joyous dancing) offers a Foundation of Freedom for many different evolving experiences. From foot loose & fancy free exercise to quantum level spiritual practice, we believe this diversity creates unity.
Our Goal:
is to create a safe loving container for non-verbal creative expression encouraging free form movement for all people of all ages. The music is created fresh for every event and intentionally designed in line with the Bodies Energy System to entice an effortless “fall” into an inward journey leading to a state of Unity!
Guidelines:
This movement exploration is a non-verbal, sacred environment where we care for the safety of all present, witness and respect our own boundaries and the boundaries of others, dropping judgment and expectation. We encourage opening to the experience of the moment; physically, mentally, spiritually, and emotionally. NO dance experience necessary –
Our Definition of Dance: Allowing the Body to BE MOVED, to BE DANCED, moving however the bleep it wants to.
What to Expect:
Just about anything goes except instruction... This 2 hr. dance consists of a 25 minute warm up, 5-10 minute opening circle welcome & intention, followed by a 60 - 70 minute flow of juicy world music ending in silence and a 10- 15 min closing circle for share-back, announcements and closing.
We Dance Bare-Foot & Like to Sweat!
Ecstatic Dance Houston's Barefoot Community (this was a PJ Dance Party!!)
Our Credo:
* We Welcome All People to Dance in a safe, non-verbal, smoke & alcohol-free environment.
* Dance freely at ones own pace, without instruction, all movement styles and forms welcome and unique individual expression is honored!
* Explore creatively and reconnect with the nature of our very existence ~ the body!
* We Practice acceptance of ourselves and each other, we embrace non-judgment- and drop expectations, opening to the infinite possibilities in each moment.
* Wear clothes that move you & dance barefoot in a sacred space.
* Move to a yummy, luscious, danceable flow of unique Music from around the world!
