ECSTATIC DANCE

We have a new addition to our events and welcome Anna-Lisa who runs Ecstatic Dance events in Brighton and London and now Salisbury!

Anna-Lisa has a pure love of transformation, expression and expansion through the body. Weaving her knowledge and experience from energetic, physical, therapeutic and creative trainings she creates layered dance landscapes to explore, reflect and process our inner worlds with a mix of global rhythms, beats and melodies both organic and electronic. Anna-Lisa has loved dancing and music since childhood and performed in clubs, festivals and carnivals as a dancer. She is passionate about community and networking, so co-created Conscious Fun Club which held a series of very popular events in summer 2020 including sunset Ecstatic Dance events.

Ecstatic Dance is based in the natural understanding that our bodies know how they need and want to move in order to heal, strengthen, release and be nourished. Our ancestors practised rhythmic dancing to drums and chanting for centuries. Ecstatic Dance is based in this ancient practice of tuning in to the free movement desired by your body to shake and awaken your being into higher states of awareness, to release stress and trauma and to reconnect with your inner truth, beauty and enjoyment of life.

You receive some guidance through a warm up and then you are invited to listen and move with your internal prompting. There will be a mix of slow, fast, playful, touching music and many styles including tribal, world, dance, folk, downtempo and ambient moods. You may have many different feelings, thoughts, experiences come up! Dance with them ALL! There is no right or wrong way to move! Enjoy connecting with your body and the music and allow your journey to unfold.

There will be refreshments afterwards.
