About this Event
MELT is our July Sol Dance β a daytime dance ritual devoted to release, letting the peak heat of the season move through the body instead of against it.
This dance is an invitation to melt what's rigid, what's been building since June. An opportunity to shake off the static of the summer heat & the chaos of the world around us. To listen again.
To remember what it feels like to move in shared presence.
Sol Dance offers a substance-free, judgment-free container where all bodies and expressions are welcome. No experience necessary. Come exactly as you are.

WHAT WE DO:
Sol Dance is a free-form movement experience where all bodies are welcomed. We offer a gently guided sensory journey meant to be experienced in its entirety. The music is meticulously curated by Sol Dance Resident DJ & Co-Founder β Scott Houston β alongside talented guest DJs, percussionists & sound healers. You can expect a culturally-diverse blend of electronic and acoustic sounds, skillfully attuned to the energy of the group. Beginning with an opening meditation and moving into deeper, slower sounds, the bpm & energy peak in the middle, and are finally brought back down, closing with meditative sound healing and a gratitude circle. We invite you to gift yourself the complete experience from start to finish
