For more than 20 years, Ean Golden has been touring the worlds largest clubs and festivals, changing the landscape of Dj technology forever. He is the leading expert in modern DJing and created the "controllerism" movement of DJ performance. A passionate dancer himself, Ean wanted to give back to his local Ecstatic Dance by providing his years of DJ experience to that community. It was a perfect fit, and he is now a very popular fixture in dances around America and abroad. Today, Ean has retired from the club circuit and only plays at conscious events including Ecstatic Dance which are aligned with his personal values. " I absolutely love playing for sober crowds that are fully present, and pushing our emotional dance landscape to the limits " It's not surprising he has become an Ecstatic dance favorite around the world, Ean improvises every show live and blends multiple songs, drum loops and samples together in a magical dance with the crowd that drives the collective energy to exceptional heights of ecstasy. www.EanGolden.com/ T Group - Crystallin Dillon T-Group is an invitation to dip below the surface of our interactions and explore layers of experience that are usually hidden from view. As we Reveal what’s actually happening within us and in the space between us, right here in the present moment, we begin to make discoveries about the forces that shape how we show up in relationship, forces that either help or hinder the process of establishing authentic, intimate connection. Though T-Group is traditionally a verbal practice, I am bringing it to the Ecstatic Dance community out of my desire to expand the range of self-expression to include more movement, sound, and touch. crystallindillon.com Sound Healing - Sita Devi Through the practice of yoga everything seemed to unify and come together in complete harmony, the entire universe resonating as one collective consciousness. This was even more magnified when Sita began singing Kirtan. She realized that by chanting the names of the divine, all perfection of yoga is attained. Sita feels the divine channel so deeply and intensely through Bhakti Yoga, she has chosen to make it her life’s purpose. She intends to share this heart opening practice with everyone, making it easily accessible. It is her dream and goal to make Bhakti, devotional service, something that anyone can do, without limitation, expectation, discrimination or judgement. www.SitaDeviLove.com Upstairs: Free Coat & Bag Check Cushy Mats, Conversation, & Free Kung Fu Tea Service benefitting Om Shan Tea At the Bar: Brilliant Herbal Elixirs, Rhythmic Seed Dancing Cuisine & Firefly Chocolates Main Floor Windows: Meditation Altar & Table Massage available $18 Drop In Multiple Discount Passes also Available at the Door 4 for $15 each ($60), 10 for $13 each ($130) Cash or Card.
