About this Event

WHAT WE DO: Sol Dance is an Atlanta based Open-Air Ecstatic Dance community dedicated towards embodied exploration and unleashing human-potential through deliciously-deep music & acoustic sound healing. EVENT: This week we have a very special 2-hour collaboration with The Wave Silent Disco and its founder, Julia Grace, based out of Los Angeles, CA! Sol Dance & The Wave Silent Disco are deeply aligned in our inherent mission of healing & connection through movement, so it was a natural fit for us to have Julia and team come out for this collaborative experience! Music will be on (in Silent Disco headphones!) by 2:45, and there will be live-percussion provided by: Metabear + Friends throughout the dance! Opening & Closing Circles to be co-facilitated by Maya Lemberg, Scott Houston, and Founder of The Wave Silent Disco: Julia Grace πŸ’« DJ SET: Scott Houston | https://soundcloud.com/sbhouston LOCATION: Candler Park (However, we are watching the weather for this weekend, and we'll keep you posted if we need to shift the timing/location!)
