Ecstatic dance
Ecstatic dance, also called trance dance, movement meditation has its roots in shamanic traditions. Throughout the world, indigenous people danced at the fire and journeyed into a trance. They danced to prepare for war, for weddings, births, conception of a new baby, to heal themselves or someone in the community.
Ecstatic dance movement is growing all over the world, everyone can dance it the old, the young, big and small, thin and fluffy, businessmen and hippies, students and factory workers. Because there are no boundaries and no divisions to dancing, there are no "steps” that you have to learn, no rules and copy rights. It belongs to the people and we all know it, its in our body, in our genes, in collective consciousness. We are all dancers, members of one world village, urban or rural tribe.
The principle of dancing is simple: let your body feel the music and move freely. Dance as if nobody's watching! (Because no one is watching, you do not have to judge, everyone is taken by the trance dance)
During Ecstatic Dance, we release stress, relax your body, calm your mind, connecting with the music and other dancers.
