WHAT IS “DESERT GROOVES” ALL ABOUT?
Many of us know that certain music genres can take us into deep states of Flow. Tuning us to aspects of ourselves that we perhaps have lost touch with. And that, through dance, movement & expression, we can begin to reconnect with the wonder, openness, and ecstatic nature of our being.
This kind of dance-as-meditation has been practiced throughout the ages, as a primordial way of connecting us with something far greater than our individual selves.

Ecstatic Dance London offers this event as an invitation to come and dance to OPEN-UP, release city stress, dance in more light and joy, and make new friends – all accompanied by a transformational mystical euphoric & uplifting dance music set to connect us deeply with our dance, our hearts, and our creativity.

We’ll be including delicious ceremonial grade cacao and a beautiful cacao ceremony/guided meditation facilitated by Seth to connect us with our body, our heart, and positive intention.
No prior experience of ecstatic dance is necessary.
All are welcome.
