About this Event
Join us at Indra's Awarehouse THURSDAY DECEMBER 7TH for a soulful Ecstatic Dance from 7:30pm-10pm. Your's truly (Rael Noonan) will be curating a 90+ minute playlist with live improvisational vocals and instrumentation throughout, bringing a unique experience for your dancing pleasure. The musical selection does contain lyrics/content of a mature nature and parental discretion is advised. That being said, all are certainly welcome. It's a total vibe and it's all about love. YUH! 🙏💚💪
We invite you to drop into presence in your own body and with those around you, for an evening of authentic physical movement & community building. We aim at creating a unique 'ecstatic dance' experience where we invite you to arrive as you are, into a space where frolic and vocalizations are welcomed. In addition, feel free to bring your instruments that you find can/will harmonize with the experience. This is a place to come, experience and create. Partner dancing and/or contact improv is certainly welcome too, provided consent is given between any/all parties involved.
Ecstatic dance is a safe container for intuitive movement that invokes internal ethereal energies, allowing people to transcend mundane existence through unchoreographed/non-performative dance. Drop in and harmonize with musical vibrations, experiencing profound liberation, divine union, & peace.
Suggested donations at the door are $11-$22. This is a sliding scale to help with those in potential financial lack. Pay what feels right and support where/how you can.
