About this Event

Ecstatic Dance DC is the dance-iest dance floor in all of DC. An incredible diversity of expressions and generations show up for one thing: to dance. All magic and connection sprouts from that singular intention. Our barefoot, non-verbal, lucid space is curated for you to let loose, play, commune with your body and connect with others in a vibrant setting. SCHEDULE: **Ecstatic Dance** 8:00pm - Doors open 8:15pm - Opening Movement w/ Lindi Harron! 8:30pm - Ecstatic Dance with ElectroCute 10:30pm - End of Session :: Electro⚡️Cute :: Electro-cute (she/they) has been DJing and dabbling in production for 12 years, rising through the ranks in the underground rave scene in NYC. Electro-cute started out spinning electro and has since expanded into mixing downtempo organic house, high energy tech house, global house, and global bass. Electro-cute samples global musical palettes as an homage to her Middle Eastern, South Asian, and European ancestry and takes you on a melodic musical journey through all genres, musical keys, energy levels, and cultures. Electrocute currently cohosts conscious dance and meditation events in the DC area with the project lovingly named Soul Fire Experiences, as a nod to the passion for the conscious community and seeking to ignite and uplift the community’s creative passions. https://linktr.ee/electrocute_xx TICKETS: Tickets are $25 at the door! https://www.eventbrite.com/cc/ecstatic-dance-dc-events-196429?utm-campaign=social&utm-content=creatorshare&utm-medium=discovery&utm-term=odclsxcollection&utm-source=cp&aff=escb VENUE: The Edgewood Arts Building Please contact us about volunteer opportunities, which gives you free entry.

Here's an introduction to what we're about: Ecstatic Dance is a community gathering for people who want to express themselves in a playful and artistic space with other people who value conscious connection, movement, and great music! We create a dance/movement space that is inspiring and uplifting, without talking, alcohol or nightclub vibes. We encourage participants to utilize the Ecstatic Dance space as a laboratory for creative movement, unbridled self-expression, authentic connections and a healthy dose of sweat. We hold a nonverbal, barefoot, alcohol-free container to keep the journey intentional and lucid. You can dance the night away and still wake up early to do awesome stuff in the world! *** Guidelines: 1. No talking on the dance floor 2. Drug-Free, Smoke-Free, Alcohol-Free environment 3.

Loose-fitting clothes that let you move your body and free yourself 2. Water and a water bottle. You can refill it at the venue. See you there!
