Vesica, while born & raised in Berlin, has lived most of her adult life in the San Francisco Bay Area, CA. Oakland Ecstatic Dance saved her in 2008, when her doctoral dissertation on spirit possession & psychiatry was literally driving her mad. Ever since, Ecstatic Dance has been her twice weekly, non-negotiable pilgrimage to the dance floor -to get down and right with herself, her community, her body and the Sacred. It is no surprise then, that Vesica is a dancer’s DJ deeply steeped in West Coast Bass music committed to the Heart, Soul and Funk of her dancers. Catch her this Spring on her US West Coast Ecstatic Dance tour and in the Netherlands. https://soundcloud.com/vesica-ecstatic Contact Improv: João Paulo Pereira João started improvising in contact in the mid 2000's in their homeland, Brazil, and has been exploring and sharing somatic movement for over 20 years. Finding playful and attuned ways to instill a 'less ambition, more curiosity' mindset in other dancers was João's greatest inspiration to start facilitating CI. Opening Circle & Meditation: Tyler Blank Tyler is the Founder of Ecstatic Dance Oakland, San Francisco, Fairfax, and the International Organization: Ecstatic Dance. org He is a Sanyassin of OSHO and He dives deep into the vision of Tantra, allowing us to use our Bodies, and this Moment, as an opportunity to be Fully Present, and Fully Alive. ---- All are Welcome, Without Restrictions or Limitations.
