ASCENT - Sol Dance's 2nd Sunday (Mar) Ecstatic Dance - INDOORS at The Goat Farm

The body will always remember how to rise out of darkness. On this Sunday, March 8th, ASCENT is about that upward movement — not escaping the ground, but pressing through it. Rooted feet. Open hearts. Spines lengthening. Breath deepening. Community rising together. These times in dance we have together are both a privilege and a birthright. Ecstatic dance. Sound healing. Live drums. Meditation. Vendors. Sober community. We rise because we do it together. We’re also stepping into a new container for ASCENT! 👀 We’ll be dancing at B6 on the Goat Farm campus — a 6,000 square foot open-plan warehouse flooded with natural light from tall industrial windows. Original beams overhead. Polished wood floors underfoot. Raw character. Refined presence. It’s centrally located just minutes from downtown Atlanta, yet it feels tucked away (with A LOT of safe parking), slightly off the beaten path and far from anything generic. This room breathes. It holds scale. It invites expansion. We can’t wait to fill it with movement.

WHAT WE DO: Sol Dance is a free-form movement experience where all bodies are welcomed. We offer a gently guided sensory journey meant to be experienced in its entirety. The music is meticulously curated by Sol Dance Resident DJ & Co-Founder – Scott Houston – alongside talented guest DJs, percussionists & sound healers. You can expect a culturally diverse blend of electronic and acoustic sounds, skillfully attuned to the group's energy. Beginning with an opening meditation and moving into deeper, slower sounds, the bpm & energy peak in the middle, and are finally brought back down, closing with meditative sound healing and a gratitude circle.
