Tuesday Eclipsey Ecstatic Dance at Mandala Springs

Hey Asheville! Come dance this Tuesday with me, Elowan, as I've just landed in Asheville and wanna share some music and movement with you! The set will be honoring this eclipse and the dark moon and celebrating spring and new roots and blossoms! Hope to see you there ☺️ Location is the Sacred Temple at Mandala Springs Retreat Center in Barnardsville, NC. Many of you know the location, however if you need directions, please PM us. IMPORTANT PARKING INFO: Please park in one of our driveways/lots. We have three large driveways/small lots to choose from. Please pull all the way into lot to maximize parking availability. Overflow parking only is on the road, but only downhill of the location. Please park only on the stream side and pull all the way off the road as far as you can. The Sheriff has been very supportive of our event, and we in turn support the Sheriff by leaving well enough road clearance in the case of a fire truck. If you do park on the road, there should be no question wether or not a fire truck could pass. Anyways, we welcome and wish you to park in our lots as we can easily accommodate all attendees' cars there. Standard Ecstatic Dance Guidelines apply: (from EcstaticDance.org) 1. Ecstatic Dance is freeform movement—without verbal guidance—to dance in whatever ways feel good to you. Dancing solo or with partners are equally welcome. 2. Ecstatic Dance is an intentional music journey mixed by a live DJ. Each dance includes a period of gentle warm-up, peaks of ecstatic intensity, and resolves into peaceful stillness. The music of Ecstatic Dance is characterized by the meeting of Conscious Dance with Modern Electronic Bass Music, (See DJ Guidelines for more details) 3. Ecstatic Dance is held in an inspiring temple-like space with enough room for a critical mass of people (50-100++) with premium sound (including subwoofers to feel the music), an altar space for peaceful contemplation and puzzle / yoga mats to stretch on. 4. Ecstatic Dance seeks to build community connection in many ways, including circling together at the opening, mid dance, and/or closing of dance. 5. Ecstatic Dance is held to support a safe, healthy, clear-minded space (No alcohol or drugs; everyone is expected to move with awareness & care & respect; no scents; no shoes except as needed for medical reasons) 6. Ecstatic Dance is held free of social distractions (no conversations, no cell phones, no photography, no videos) *Please post your carpools the the comments below
