BloomDance August 🌸 Theme: The Sacred Elements

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 🌸 Welcome to BloomDance 🌸 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The cosmos is a flower, perpetually blooming with energy. ✨🌈 Do you feel it's call to dance, connect, and celebrate? Welcome to BloomDance, the ecstatic dance adventure, a co-creation from our beautiful community to journey into the depths of ourselves, and out into the energy of the cosmos. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 🌸 Theme 🌸 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Connect with earth, air, fire, and water—through dance, we honor the raw forces that move within and around us. BloomDance invites you into a deep celebration of The Sacred Elements—a return to what is raw, real, and essential. Let each beat ground you like earth, stir your breath like air, ignite passion like fire, and flow through you like water. Costumes are welcome to reflect your elemental affinity, but more than adornment, this is a call to embody. As summer wanes, we gather to reconnect with the primal rhythms of nature and the sacred cycles alive in our bodies and community. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 🌸 DJ: Katie Scott 🌸 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Katie’s sets are intended to be a sonic and embodied sanctuary, a permission slip for: • authentic, shameless expression. • tapping into your inner (re)source. • grounding into your body. One of Katie’s greatest joys is getting dancers into their hips and discovering their own medicine. Her set’s weave the soundscapes of the earth, organica (house), shamanic bass, world/ethnic fusion, medicine music remixes, deep tribal, and acoustic sound healing. Katie is a trauma-informed embodiment mentor, tantric facilitator, chi gong instructor, ceremonialist, DJ, co-founder of EDance Chatt & Chatt Contact Improv, twerk medicine enthusiast, and full-spectrum love nugget. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 🌸 Foundation 🌸 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We believe that creativity, vitality, sensuality, and joy bloom naturally when a strong foundation of care, consent, trust, and community is established. Join us in weaving our way from the tenderness of care to the immense vitality of joy. We are committed to creating a space where everyone feels welcome and safe to be themselves and move freely, without judgment. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 🌸 Event Flow 🌸 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ✨ 7:00pm - Arrive, Settle in with Cacao & Tea ✨ 7:30pm - Opening Circle & Ecstatic Dance Begins ✨ All evening - Socialize & Dance On ✨ 12:00am - Closing Circle ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 🌸 Offerings 🌸 ✨ Nourishing Food ✨ Tea and Cacao Lounge ✨ Live Art ✨ Massage If you would like to share an offering with the community, please reach out to Adnan at [email protected] with your sweet idea.
