Ecstatic Dance Evening ✦ Katya Karnoup ➤ Workshop: African Dance

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ecstatic Dance ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ DJ: Katya Karnoup aka Katusha This set is inspired by the transition of seasons, & a curiosity of what it means to be Alive in this human experience. What does it FEEL like to be human in our bodies, right NOW, and the next now, and the next now. What does it SMELL like, TASTE like, SOUND LIKE. What arises when we drop IN to our bodies, and relax our monkey minds? Taurus energy weaves its way into this set - calling us into our bodies, to be EMBODIED. To use our SENSES, as guides into presence, power, stability, Earth medicine, aliveness. Music vibe of this set is inspired by vibrations that touches the Heart, move the Hips, and invite fierce Presence & Loving Awareness. Katya is a Naturopathic medical student, a curious soul, a devotee to learning the path of Love and Truth. Originally from Michigan (& first generation Russian), she has been a part of the Seattle ecstatic dance community for several years, & has discovered immense healing throughout her time here. Katya feels inspired to give back to the community by sharing a piece of her heart & what musical vibrations inspire her with her DJ sets. Her intention for this set is to cultivate a journey for people to discover themselves, & to practice Curiosity, Acceptance, Bravery, Connectedness with the Whole. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Pre-Dance Workshop ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Title: African Dance Facilitator: Baba & Sarah Lee ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Evening flow ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 6:30pm - Doors Open 6:45pm - Workshop 8:00p - Dance begins 10:00p - Dance ends, closing circle 10:10p - Snacks & Socializing 11:00p - Doors close ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Cost ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Workshop: free if attending dance Passes: Many Options Drop-in $20 https://www.seattleecstatica.com/ecstatic-dances ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
