Ostara Dance

JOIN US AS WE CELEBRATE ANOTHER SACRED HOLIDAY IN THE WHEEL OF THE YEAR! Next, we arrive at Ostara, the blessed celebration of the Spring Equinox—a moment of balance... when light and shadow stand as equals. Day and night meet in harmony, bringing renewal, rebirth, new life. Ostara invites us to honor both the light and the shadows that have informed us through the winter season. It is a celebration of balance, fertility, possibility, and new beginnings. Join us through movement, dance, ritual, and vibrational healing to celebrate this sacred time! What To Expect: OPENING + WARM UP with Light Ray, Jayme Rose, and Simcha Jayme Rose and Simcha will open the portal through movement and ceremony, while Light Ray weaves into our sacred container with his live electronic sounds. We will honor the balance of light and shadow within, grounding into our individual souls and the soul of the collective. ECSTATIC DANCE with Nah Mean? From there, we surrender to an ecstatic dance journey held by the electronic sounds of Nah Mean? This is a space to move freely, to release, and to embody the blossoming of spring. COOL DOWN + SOUND BATH with Gina and Allie As the energy softens, Gina will guide us into a grounding cool down, allowing integration and stillness. We will end our ceremony in resonance and peace through vibrational healing with Allie. Throughout the evening, you are invited to explore: - Self-guided ceremonial rituals rooted in intention and renewal - Nourishing, vegan food from Durgas Om Cooking - An Elixir Bar with teas, cacao, oxymel spritzes and more to uplift and ground - Intuitive Readings with Katie - Bodywork with Gina - Clothing and Ritual Tools Swap BROUGHT TO YOU BY, ANCESTRAL RHTYHMS You may have noticed a pattern of new ceremonial dances following the Wheel of the Year here in Jersey, so we decided to give our collective a name. Born through collaboration via Thyme Travelers Conservatory, we are four women - Allie, Jayme, Gina, and Simcha - connected in our spiritual practices, friendship, and deep desire to create nourishing experiences for our community. We celebrate the cycles of earth through ceremony on the sacred days of the Wheel of the Year, which is deeply rooted in ancient rituals that have guided our ancestors for millennia. It is with this sacred knowing we collaborate and we introduce ourselves to you as Ancestral Rhythms. ANCESTRAL RHYTHMS IS A COMMUNITY! Ancestral Rhythms would not be able to throw these beautiful events without the support of our volunteers. Thank you so deeply for always showing up, supporting our vision, and helping us create the community of our dreams. We see you building, carrying, decorating, smiling, dancing, be-ing, with us and we are so grateful.
