.: Synergy Ecstatic Dance : KAY :.

Come open your body Release the mind Breath into your heart And Dance like no one's watching~ . This movement session is a practice of deep listening through your senses, awakening dormant codes of somatic cognition and unfolding authentic expression. Breathing deeply and flowing freely~ Coming back Home within. . This dance floor will be a safe space to express your process to the outer worlds without needing words. If you desire to converse, please move your conversation to the astroturf foyer outside the door, or take a breather for fresh air outside. Keep voices to a respectable volume when on the street. . All expressions are indeed welcome; please feel empowered to laugh, cry, scream and shout. This is a sober space, to embody your emotions fully without reliance on use of substance. Clear mind, centered hearts. . We are propagating a consent-based culture: please tune in with clear yeses and no's when engaging with others on the dancefloor. This is a judgement free zone. Here is a space to embody what's moving within you. No cameras or footage allowed. One of our team may take photos of the dj to share for their own profiles, yet this isn't a space for recording others in their movement journeys. This is a space of presence and acceptance of all that is. . This will be a space to move to the beat of your heart, the rhythm of the depths of your being, and the spaces in-between sounds. Your movement is your authentic art, waiting to be poured out onto the canvas of space and time. . =Schedule= 6.45 - Doors open, welcome to come early to settle into the space 7pm - Opening Circle & Body Activation 7.15-8.45pm Music with KAY 8.45-9.15pm - Sound Bath with Daniel Lew 9.45pm - Closing Integration Circle 10-10pm - Integration mingle flow 10.15pm - Time to flow onwards & vacate the space =Music= ~KAY~ KAY enjoys curating intentional musical journeys with tasteful, danceable beats and caresses of nostalgia.

She now co-owns La Selva studios, a production studio and events space in East Van. The main focus of her life and art continues to be empowering people to celebrate.

This trauma caused him to devote his life to music. No matter the location, he sings with soul. His songs are often introspective and he hopes to inspire his listeners to live authentically. Recently, he was featured in Pancouver Magazine, Jade Music Festival, and crossed paths with Ed Sheeran.
