Through sound, breath, and intention, the dance floor becomes a place to step out of the mind and into the body. Whether you come to expand, soften, or simply be in motion, each experience unfolds in its own way, grounded in presence and supported by a respectful, shared container. Featuring a musical journey by Apukuna, known for weaving sound with the rhythm of the breath. 🪩ABOUT APUKUNA (Jon David Steinman) Jon David Steinman (Apukuna) is a DJ, musician, and facilitator devoted to the art of movement as a pathway for connection, expression, and awakening.

I’ve never experienced anything like it — riding the sonic waves of inhale and exhale. 100% unique.” “By far the best ecstatic dance I’ve ever experienced.” #ecstaticdance
