Dance Temple Sep 14th ~ Gather the Light ~ With Mr. Berg-E

Gather the Light – An Ecstatic Dance with Mr. Berg-E ☀️ As the days grow shorter and the air begins to shift, we stand at the edge of a season turning. Summer doesn’t last, but what we’ve lived through it does. This dance is an invitation to gather the light you’ve collected over these past months; the joy, the growth, the lessons, the laughter, and store it in your body, where it can carry you forward. Before the fall comes fully in, let’s move with gratitude, presence, and reverence for what this cycle has offered. The warmth of the sun, the beauty of connection, the fire of movement, it’s all still here, ready to be embodied one more time. Join us September 14th to dance it in, dance it through, and dance it home. About Mr. Berg-E As a sonic alchemist Mr. Berg-E's heart-lead mission is to craft playful and inspiring soundscapes that ignite the dance floor. He blends a myriad of genres, from House, D&B and bass music to disco, funk and organica in seamless fashion; curating emotional and evocative journeys that uplift and invigorate. Be ready to be moved. https://soundcloud.com/mr_berg-e Sunday Sep 14th Doors Open: 10:15am Dance: 10:30am Closing Circle at 12 noon Buchanan Hall 2674 Dunsmuir $20-$15 sliding scale (CASH ONLY on the door) ::LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT:: I respectfully acknowledge that the land we gather on is on the Unceded Traditional Territory of the K’ómoks First Nation, the traditional keepers of this land. ::DANCE TEMPLE AGREEMENTS:: In this space we collectively agree to: *Develop compassion, awareness, acceptance *No talking on the dance floor *No cellphones *No instruments *No photography *No drugs, alcohol, or other intoxicants. *** No glass allowed on the farm, please leave all glass items at home *** *Tops to be worn throughout the dance and around the property for all gender expressions, bikini top is the minimum coverage requested by the landowners, please be respectful of this boundary. ::ON BOUNDARIES & TOUCH:: We recognize that touch and physical proximity can mean different things to different people.
