Follow what feels true in your body, honor your own boundaries, and practice consent in every interaction. We gather in a clear, substance-free field, no alcohol or drugs. Please keep phones away so we can be fully present together. Dance barefoot if you can, or wear soft-soled dance shoes if needed. This is a community space open to all ages and expressions. --------------------------------------------------------------- ALIA is an acclaimed Electronic Music Producer and DJ from the SF Bay Area.
