MOVE YOUR BODY FREE YOUR SOUL

Discover Ecstatic Dance Gaya, a practice where body, mind and spirit come together in a dance of liberation and authentic expression. An invitation to let go of inhibitions, connect with the essence and celebrate life in its fullness, guided by an inspiring and vibrant musical selection.

WHAT IS ECSTATIC DANCE?

Ecstatic Dance is a transcendental experience where freedom meets expression, where music is the map and the body is the compass.

Inspired by the work of Gabrielle Roth, Ecstatic Dance is a journey where there is no final destination, where each step is a discovery, each movement is a revelation. In a welcoming and judgement-free environment, we invite everyone to explore the infinite paths of individual expression.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF ECSTATIC DANCE?

- Physical: In addition to being an excellent form of exercise, it helps to release tension, improve posture and increase vital energy.

- Mental and Emotional: Works like a moving meditation, helping to clear the mind, promote creativity and offer a powerful emotional catharsis.

- Social: Strengthens the feeling of belonging and connection in a community that values ​​diversity, mutual respect and authenticity.

WHAT LEVELS ARE IN ECSTATIC DANCE?

From the novice to the experienced, everyone finds their space. Everyone is encouraged to dance their unique dance, respecting their own rhythm and form of expression, celebrating diversity and inclusion.

HOW DOES ECSTATIC DANCE PRACTICE WORK?

The session begins with an introduction that sets the stage for the journey. As the music begins, each DJ takes the group on a unique sonic journey designed to awaken, energize and ultimately calm the spirit.

WHO CAN PRACTICE ECSTATIC DANCE?

Ecstatic Dance is an inclusive practice, open to all ages, abilities and backgrounds. The only requirement is the willingness to move freely and explore the infinite possibilities of expression through the body.

WHAT IS AN ECSTATIC DANCE MEETING?

Each encounter is a celebration of life, a sacred space of freedom and connection. It's an opportunity to leave behind what no longer serves, celebrate the present and connect with a vibrant community.

THE ROLE OF THE DJ IN ECSTATIC DANCE

At the heart of the Ecstatic Dance Gaya experience is music curation, an art masterfully performed by resident and guest DJs. With intuitive and deeply connected selection, each DJ weaves a sonic tapestry that guides the dance journey. Each track is carefully chosen to inspire different movements, emotions and states of being, creating a flow that moves from energetic awakening to contemplative calm.

Music acts as an invitation to personal and collective exploration, where every beat, every melody, every silence speaks directly to the soul. It is a wordless communication, a universal language that unites all participants in a shared experience of liberation and ecstasy.

With a unique ability to sense the energy in the room, DJs adjust the musical selection in real time, ensuring that every moment is perfectly synchronized with the collective. It is a dance between the DJ, the music and the participants, where everyone is an integral part of creating a sacred space of expression and connection.

Together at Ecstatic Dance Gaya, we create a space where it is safe to be authentic, explore the unknown, and connect deeply with ourselves and others. Under the guidance of our carefully selected music, each session is an opportunity to "Move the Body, Free the Soul."

A hug, Bruna and Mac.

"Move your body, free your soul."
