Embodied Ecstatic Dance: Taurus Full Moon

When: Dance starts @ 7.00pm Where: Maori Hill Community Centre, 607 Highgate, Maori Hill, Dunedin INVESTMENT: $15 + BF https://www.eventbrite.co.nz/e/embodied-ecstatic-dance-full-moon-in-taurus-tickets-202334797827 Limited door sales $20 (pre-booking recommended due to COVID restrictions). What is it? We are a heart-centered group who gather to reclaim the joy and release of dancing in a non-judgmental space. The recipe is simple: No booze, no shoes, great music and an epic tribe come together to dance. Don't worry about steps, form or how you look, it's not that kind of dance. Our dance is one that throws the rule books away and instead encourages you to let go of the pesky mind and release yourself to the music. Transcending language, cultural and personal barriers, Ecstatic Dance enables millions to connect through dance and music all over the world. Ecstatic Dance helps us break down the layers of self and come together as a tribe the way our ancestors have always done. By getting in touch with our roots and our bodies we are able to unlock the deep knowledge of the body and the heart and start to release control of the thinking mind. When we step on the dance floor, we include our whole selves, even the frightened parts that want to hide. We dance through pain and sorrow. We dance with joy until our hard edges soften and our masks fall away. We meet other courageous dancers, weaving unbreakable threads of connection. Our friendships transcend the boundaries of time and space. It all melts together–beat, movement, breath–into a swirling vortex we call community. As the throbbing pulse of the dance floor matches our own heartbeat, we know, without a doubt, we are not alone. Facilitators: Led by experienced facilitators Lili Wyant and Molly Devine. Both certified in Embodied Ecstatic Dance with Sarsha Hope of Hope Wellness, this dynamic duo will create a safe space for you to drop out of your head and into your hearts. As a professional musician, Molly will be using her passion of music to weave a mesmerising soundscape on the decks. Drawing on her 9+ years experience of teaching yoga, Lili will guide you to find freedom within as the dance becomes a moving meditation.
