Seth brings a wealth of experience holding heart-centered spaces. \nAs a musician\, Seth is very passionate about rhythm & drumming\,  has an MA in Community Music from Goldsmith College\, worked as a world music percussion teacher in East London schools for almost 20 years and started URUBU collective back in 2009 as a Live Music Ecstatic Dance experience with Afro-Brazilian drummers & musicians.  \nSeth has been running various body-mind integration classes and workshops for many years. His inspiration comes from many sources including Humanistic & Body Psychotherapy\, the Human Potential Movement\, 5 Rhythms\, Tantra and Active meditations.  \nDiana Upite:  Trained in  classical  music from a young age\, and later  in contemporary music\, Diana carries a life-long passion for singing\, improvising and re-imagining traditional Celtic and folk songs with her own melodic vision.  A singer  at heart\, she connects deeply with the melodies and harmonies of ancient Europe and beyond.  \nDiana is passionate about bringing practices of rest and embodiment to others. Through her singing\, her intention is to guide you on a journey of reconnection and self-discovery\, reuniting you with the source of who you are. \nDiana also has a keen interest in making delicious raw chocolates and raw cacao drinks for cacao ceremonies\, private clients and is constantly experimenting with new flavours. She is a co-creator of many URUBU wellbeing classes\, workshops and retreats. \nMORE DETAILS ABOUT THE WORKSHOPS:\n\n\n\n⋘ ─ ∗TRANCE DANCE∗ ─ ⋙\n12:3OPM – 3PM \nA beautiful experience including Cacao Ceremony & Blindfolded Trance Dance Ritual. \nThrough the use of a blindfold\, raw ceremonial cacao\, a transforming breathing technique and dynamic rhythms\, percussion and ecstatic movements\, we enter into the consciousness of our body\, to feel\, to express\, to come home… to be completely Alive! \nTHE INVITATION \nTrance Dance is an invitation into deep liberation\, driven by our breath\, our intentions\, and energy\, and moving deeper than our verbal intellect\, we let go.  \n⋙ Our consciousness can then flow\, liberating itself into the dance… and then the ecstasy happens… \nNatural body movements and intuitive expressive dance are simply forms of an ancient pre-verbal language. It is an expression of the intelligence of our creative unconscious. Honouring the evolutionary intelligence encoded in our cells! \nWe all seek something to complete us and give us a feeling of fullness and meaning in our lives … – The answer is inside us! \nCACAO INTENTION SETTING RITUAL \nWe will set our intentions for Trance Dance with ceremonial grade cacao. Our Raw Vegan Cacao is prepared lovingly by Diana (who makes the best\, velvety tasting cacao in town for sure!). She uses ethically sourced\, highest quality ingredients from Guatemala\, directly from a reliable cacao bean farmer.  This rich velvety elixir is a doorway to the heart\, celebrated and honoured by the Incas\, Aztecs\, Mayans and in many ancient traditions. Cacao\, chocolate in its purest form\, is a heart opening & totally natural NON-psychedelic medicine\, containing an abundance of nutritional goodness & natural happy chemicals.  \nRelease what no longer serves you\, and invite in what you want more of in your life! \nFacilitated by Seth Newman \nMy purpose is to facilitate rituals that empower “the whole human being” through dance and music. Like Bioenergetics and other somatic processes\, for me\, Trance Dance was another door to inner discovery and transformation. I have always been passionate about contemporary forms of music and dance that reclaim our vital energy and our creative potential. I believe that “letting go into life” is synonymous\, with our “surrender to the body”. Letting go to the natural flow that moves through us. Letting go\, to let flow! \nIt is through “the flow experience” that we express\, feel and find ourselves\, without being connected to “flow” nothing creative happens. \nTrance Dance ritual is an ecstatic\, creative process that returns us to the consciousness of the body and reclaims our Soul. For those who want to immerse themselves and explore their full potential\, body\, heart & soul! \nGive yourself to the dance of life! The Trance Dance ritual invites you to have a direct experience of freedom\, truth and power\, with awareness. A drug-free ecstasy! \nFeedback from previous Trance Dance events: \n“An exceptional evening – everything I wanted and more! You know to experience such presence\, inner stillness\, sacred connection with other people\, in such a short time with strangers here in London is rare to find. The body – movement – connection – presence – passion and love. I felt it all… Grateful”  \n“Fantastic and deeply moving experience. Powerful and blissful dancing expertly guided by Seth. Deeply grateful for the experience!”  \n“It was a very powerful\, letting go\, ritual experience. Brilliant!” \n“I’m really surprised that I could feel so “high” without having to “intoxicate” myself!!! A great night and no hangover!” \n“Wonderful experience. A magical journey into yourself\, and an opportunity to just enjoy dance with a lovely group of soul dancers at the same time. Every movement body was a blessing. Thank you to Seth Newman to create this fantastic dance\, it has helped me lot after a hard week. May Love connect us all. xxx” \n“Brilliant! Brilliant! Brilliant!” \n“Such a beautiful evening; powerful experience! Feeling blessed.” \n“That was\, excellent\, friendly\, well lead very different experience. Thank you” \n\n\n\n⋘ ─ ∗DRUM CIRCLE∗ ─ ⋙ \n3:3OPM – 5:30PM \nExperience the uplifting power of rhythm! Realign with yourself\, aligning with others and go deep through rhythm & trance.  \nDrums have been utilised in every culture down through the ages\, for many purposes from religious rituals\, ceremonies\, and as a way to communicate. Shamans used drumming as a means of reaching an altered or trance-like state so that they can connect with the non-ordinary states of being. Drumming has also been used therapeutically since ancient times to heal\, empower\, and unify.  \nDrumming is one of the ways we can connect though rhythm\, sound\, music!  \nREASONS TO START DRUMMING:  \nDrumming can have positive effects on our physical & mental wellbeing. Here’s why drumming is good for us: \n– Makes you happy. Participate in one of our drum circles and you will see how happy it makes you! Drumming releases endorphins\, enkephalins and Alpha waves in the brain\, which are associated with general feelings of well-being and euphoria. Induces deep relaxation. In one study\, blood samples from participants who participated in an hour-long drumming session revealed a reversal in stress hormones. \n– Boosts your immune system. Studies show that drumming circles boost the immune system. Barry Bittman\, MD\, neurologist and President of the Yamaha Music & Wellness Institute\, has shown that group drumming actually increases natural T-cells\, which help the body combat cancer as well as other viruses. \n– Creates a sense of connectedness. Drumming circles and group drumming classes provide an opportunity for “synchronicity” in that you connect with your own spirit at a deeper level while also connecting with other like-minded people.  \n– Aligns your body and mind with the natural world. The Greek origin of the word “rhythm” is “to flow.” Drumming allows you to flow with the rhythms of life by simply feeling the beat.  \n– Provides a way to access a higher power. Shamans often use drumming as a means to integrate mind\, body and spirit. They focus on the whole body and then integrate the healing at both the physical and spiritual level by drumming\, which connects spiritual forces. \n-Releases negative feelings. The act of drumming can serve as a form of self-expression. You can literally drum out your feelings. When held\, negative emotions can form energy blockages. The physical stimulation of hitting the drums can help remove those blockages. Drumming has even been used therapeutically to help addicts deal with their emotions. \n-Puts you in the present moment. While drumming you are moving your awareness toward the flow of life. When you are flowing with the rhythm of life you cannot be caught up in your past or worrying about your future. Allows for personal transformation. \n– Drumming stimulates creative expression. When you drum in a group\, you not only get to self-express\, but you get feedback from the other drummers. It’s the equivalent of talk therapy! Drum circles provide a means of exploring your inner self\, and expanding your consciousness while being part of a community. \n\n\n\n⋘ ─ ∗ ECSTATIC DANCE ∗ ─ ⋙\n6PM – 8PM \nBrought to you by: Ecstatic Dance London – We love to dance. We love music. We love to inspire\, to connect\, to heal and transform!  \nDiscover dance as a moving meditation\, body ritual\, awareness practice & ceremony \nIn our Sunday Ecstatic Dance sessions\, the musical focus will be more of a World/Medicine music\, Afro-House & a Tribal Flow vibe. Our Saturday Ecstatic Dance sessions tend to be more of a celebration with a light-hearted party atmosphere\, in these new Sunday Dances\, you’re invited to explore  “movement as meditation” with beautiful music to accompany your journey… \nEcstatic Dance is a dance/movement practice to  explore the exhilarating feeling of moving your body freely. You are invited to move\, play\, connect\, sweat\, stretch\, sound\, unwind\, renew\, release\, improvise\, transform. Be true to yourself\, while respecting your body\, in this space that we co-create together. Move your body\, unleash the wild dancing self without caring what people think\, claim your freedom\, open your heart & touch the infinite! \nOur Ecstatic Dance classes create a safe and respectful environment that embraces ‘all ways’. We offer a movement practice that supports your free expression of emotions and inner space through movement and music. Our intention for these Ecstatic Dance classes is self-exploration\, connection\, fun\, healing\, expanding human potential and community building through freestyle ecstatic dance.  \nEnter an open space…and with your bare feet explore the exhilarating feeling of moving your body freely. You are invited to move\, play\, connect\, sweat\, stretch\, sound\, unwind\, renew\, release\, improvise\, transform. Be true to yourself\, while respecting your body\, in this space that we co-create together. \nWHAT TO EXPECT: \n1. Next-level\, conscious\, inspiring electronic dance music \n2. A beautiful\, sacred\, heartful and fun dance journey \n3. A safe space for you to dance freely in \n4. Vibrant people who love to dance and love music! \nPRACTICE SPECIFICS: Warm-up:  stretch\, move/dance and reflect on the intention for the dance to a gentle sound wave. The Practice:  freestyle dancing to a large sound wave featuring Live DJ set. Some guidance & facilitation will be provided. And then we will let the music\, the community and our own inner space direct our steps\, our movements\, our expression\, our journey. Relaxation: Ecstatic Dance usually ends with a deep relaxation. \nECSTATIC DANCE GUIDELINES: \nNo late comers please. This is a shared journey from the beginning to the end and we aim to create a safe container for all dancers.  If you are more than 30 min late\, arriving after 6:30pm\, we won’t be able to let you join the session\, this is so we can all journey together. \n1. No talking during the dance (if you wish to talk to\, you are welcome to chat before/after dance  outside the building). When we dance without the chitchat\, something alchemical can happen on the dancefloor. A unified field of Being emerges and we feel both wild and free\, contained within ourselves And connected to something much\, much greater than our individual selves. \n2. Drug-Free\, Smoke-Free\, Alcohol-Free environment \n3. No photos or videos\, Mobile phones muted and out of sight  \n4. Care/Awareness for the co-created space and each other \n5. Move your body however you wish \n6. No spectating. Stay connected to your own body\, sensations\, emotions\, and feelings. Ecstatic Dance is about you and your relationship to the Dance. Dancers feel uncomfortable when being spectated at. Come prepared to Dance yourself free from inhibitions!  \n7. You can dance alone\, or with as many partners as (you) like to join. (If you’d rather not dance with someone\, thank them for the offer by placing your hands in prayer position at your heart – Namaste.) \n8. This is not a pick up place. Please respect all dancers (especially women) and do not ask for anyone’s contact details. If you wish to stay in touch with someone\, give them your  email instead of asking for their contact details.  No means no.  \n“Our bodies instinctively know what feels good or bad\, right or wrong. However\, often our heads get in the way. Ecstatic Dance is about finding our way through to what feels good. How can we use dance to consciously transform towards finding joy\, without denying our anger or sadness?  Ask yourself: what’s my body feeling in this moment? Does it feel good moving this way\, or that? Does it feel nourishing to dance with another\, or dance solo? Where do I most feel connected with Self? Let your body lead the way.” ~ Abigail Harris \nNo experience necessary. All welcome.   \nCACAO GRATITUDE CIRCLE \nAt Ecstatic Dance London we LOVE chocolate\, RAW chocolate-CACAO!  We will provide complimentary Raw Vegan Cacao to superfood charge your dance with us!  \nCacao is the ultimate heart opener\, it will give you energy\, revitalise your BodyMind inviting you to express\, release & unleash your creativity during the dance!   \nOur Raw Vegan Cacao is prepared lovingly by Diana (who makes the best\, velvety tasting cacao in town for sure!). She uses ethically sourced\, highest quality ingredients from Guatemala\, directly from a reliable cacao bean farmer.   \nJoin us to explore Cacao + Ecstatic Dance as a potent synthesis for Transformation. After the dance warm up we will take a moment to attune and connect to what we are grateful for\, giving thanks for all the abundance in our life. \n\n\nSAFETY GUIDELINES & PREVENTION MEASURES:\nWe kindly ask that you respect and follow Siobhan Davies Dance Studio safety guidelines.

Seth brings a wealth of experience holding heart-centered spaces. \nAs a musician\, Seth is very passionate about rhythm & drumming\,  has an MA in Community Music from Goldsmith College\, worked as a world music percussion teacher in East London schools for almost 20 years and started URUBU collective back in 2009 as a Live Music Ecstatic Dance experience with Afro-Brazilian drummers & musicians.  \nSeth has been running various body-mind integration classes and workshops for many years. His inspiration comes from many sources including Humanistic & Body Psychotherapy\, the Human Potential Movement\, 5 Rhythms\, Tantra and Active meditations.  \nDiana Upite:  Trained in  classical  music from a young age\, and later  in contemporary music\, Diana carries a life-long passion for singing\, improvising and re-imagining traditional Celtic and folk songs with her own melodic vision.  A singer  at heart\, she connects deeply with the melodies and harmonies of ancient Europe and beyond.  \nDiana is passionate about bringing practices of rest and embodiment to others. Through her singing\, her intention is to guide you on a journey of reconnection and self-discovery\, reuniting you with the source of who you are. \nDiana also has a keen interest in making delicious raw chocolates and raw cacao drinks for cacao ceremonies\, private clients and is constantly experimenting with new flavours. She is a co-creator of many URUBU wellbeing classes\, workshops and retreats. \nMORE DETAILS ABOUT THE TRANCE DANCE:\n\n\n\n⋘ ─ ∗TRANCE DANCE∗ ─ ⋙\n12:3OPM – 3PM \nA beautiful experience including Cacao Ceremony & Blindfolded Trance Dance Ritual. \nThrough the use of a blindfold\, raw ceremonial cacao\, a transforming breathing technique and dynamic rhythms\, percussion and ecstatic movements\, we enter into the consciousness of our body\, to feel\, to express\, to come home… to be completely Alive! \nTHE INVITATION \nTrance Dance is an invitation into deep liberation\, driven by our breath\, our intentions\, and energy\, and moving deeper than our verbal intellect\, we let go.  \n⋙ Our consciousness can then flow\, liberating itself into the dance… and then the ecstasy happens… \nNatural body movements and intuitive expressive dance are simply forms of an ancient pre-verbal language. It is an expression of the intelligence of our creative unconscious. Honouring the evolutionary intelligence encoded in our cells! \nWe all seek something to complete us and give us a feeling of fullness and meaning in our lives … – The answer is within! \nCACAO INTENTION SETTING RITUAL \nWe will set our intentions for the Trance Dance journey with ceremonial grade cacao. Our Raw Vegan Cacao is prepared lovingly by Diana (who makes the best\, velvety -asting cacao in town for sure!). She uses ethically sourced\, highest quality ingredients from Guatemala\, directly from a reliable cacao bean farmer.  This rich velvety elixir is a doorway to the heart\, celebrated and honoured by the Incas\, Aztecs\, Mayans and in many ancient traditions. Cacao\, chocolate in its purest form\, is a heart-opening & totally natural NON-psychedelic medicine\, containing an abundance of nutritional goodness & natural happy chemicals.  \nRelease what no longer serves you\, and invite in what you want more of in your life! \nFacilitated by Seth Newman \nMy purpose is to facilitate rituals that empower “the whole human being” through dance and music. Like Bioenergetics and other somatic processes\, for me\, Trance Dance was another door to inner discovery and transformation. I have always been passionate about contemporary forms of music and dance that reclaim our vital energy and our creative potential. I believe that “letting go into life” is synonymous\, with our “surrender to the body”. Letting go to the natural flow that moves through us. Letting go\, to let flow! \nIt is through “the flow experience” that we express\, feel and find ourselves\, without being connected to “flow” nothing creative happens. \nOur Trance Dance rituals are an ecstatic\, creative process that returns us to the consciousness of the body and reclaims our Life-energy. It is for those courageous dancers who want to immerse themselves and explore their full potential\, body\, heart & soul! \nGive yourself to the dance of life! The Trance Dance ritual invites you to have a direct experience of freedom\, truth and power\, with awareness. A drug-free ecstasy! \nFeedback from previous Trance Dance events: \n“An exceptional evening – everything I wanted and more! You know to experience such presence\, inner stillness\, sacred connection with other people\, in such a short time with strangers here in London is rare to find. The body – movement – connection – presence – passion and love. I felt it all… Grateful”  \n“Fantastic and deeply moving experience. Powerful and blissful dancing expertly guided by Seth. Deeply grateful for the experience!”  \n“It was a very powerful\, letting go\, ritual experience. Brilliant!” \n“I’m really surprised that I could feel so “high” without having to “intoxicate” myself!!! A great night and no hangover!” \n“Wonderful experience. A magical journey into yourself\, and an opportunity to just enjoy dance with a lovely group of soul dancers at the same time. Every movement body was a blessing. Thank you to Seth Newman to create this fantastic dance\, it has helped me lot after a hard week. May Love connect us all. xxx” \n“Brilliant! Brilliant! Brilliant!” \n“Such a beautiful evening; powerful experience! Feeling blessed.” \n“That was\, excellent\, friendly\, well lead very different experience.

We love music. We love to inspire\, to connect\, to heal and transform!  \nDiscover dance as a moving meditation\, body ritual\, awareness practice & ceremony \nIn our Sunday Ecstatic Dance sessions\, the musical focus will be more of a World/Medicine music\, Afro-House & a Tribal Flow vibe. Our Saturday Ecstatic Dance sessions tend to be more of a celebration with a light-hearted party atmosphere\, in these new Sunday Dances\, you’re invited to explore  “movement as meditation” with beautiful music to accompany your journey… \nEcstatic Dance is a dance/movement practice to  explore the exhilarating feeling of moving your body freely.

The Practice:  freestyle dancing to a large sound wave featuring Live DJ set. Some guidance & facilitation will be provided. And then we will let the music\, the community and our own inner space direct our steps\, our movements\, our expression\, our journey. Relaxation: Ecstatic Dance usually ends with a deep relaxation. \nECSTATIC DANCE GUIDELINES: \nNo late comers please. This is a shared journey from the beginning to the end and we aim to create a safe container for all dancers.  If you are more than 30 min late\, arriving after 6:30pm\, we won’t be able to let you join the session\, this is so we can all journey together. \n1. No talking during the dance (if you wish to talk to\, you are welcome to chat before/after dance  outside the building). When we dance without the chitchat\, something alchemical can happen on the dancefloor. A unified field of Being emerges and we feel both wild and free\, contained within ourselves And connected to something much\, much greater than our individual selves. \n2. Drug-Free\, Smoke-Free\, Alcohol-Free environment \n3. No photos or videos\, Mobile phones muted and out of sight  \n4. Care/Awareness for the co-created space and each other \n5. Move your body however you wish \n6. No spectating. Stay connected to your own body\, sensations\, emotions\, and feelings. Ecstatic Dance is about you and your relationship to the Dance. Dancers feel uncomfortable when being spectated at. Come prepared to Dance yourself free from inhibitions!  \n7. You can dance alone\, or with as many partners as (you) like to join. (If you’d rather not dance with someone\, thank them for the offer by placing your hands in prayer position at your heart – Namaste.) \n8. This is not a pick up place. Please respect all dancers (especially women) and do not ask for anyone’s contact details. If you wish to stay in touch with someone\, give them your  email instead of asking for their contact details.  No means no.  \n“Our bodies instinctively know what feels good or bad\, right or wrong. However\, often our heads get in the way. Ecstatic Dance is about finding our way through to what feels good. How can we use dance to consciously transform towards finding joy\, without denying our anger or sadness?  Ask yourself: what’s my body feeling in this moment? Does it feel good moving this way\, or that? Does it feel nourishing to dance with another\, or dance solo? Where do I most feel connected with Self? Let your body lead the way.” ~ Abigail Harris \nNo experience necessary. All welcome.   \nCACAO GRATITUDE CIRCLE \nAt Ecstatic Dance London we LOVE chocolate\, RAW chocolate-CACAO!  We will provide complimentary Raw Vegan Cacao to superfood charge your dance with us!  \nCacao is the ultimate heart opener\, it will give you energy\, revitalise your BodyMind inviting you to express\, release & unleash your creativity during the dance!   \nOur Raw Vegan Cacao is prepared lovingly by Diana (who makes the best\, velvety tasting cacao in town for sure!). She uses ethically sourced\, highest quality ingredients from Guatemala\, directly from a reliable cacao bean farmer.   \nJoin us to explore Cacao + Ecstatic Dance as a potent synthesis for Transformation.

Seth brings a wealth of experience holding heart-centered spaces. \nAs a musician\, Seth is very passionate about rhythm & drumming\,  has an MA in Community Music from Goldsmith College\, worked as a world music percussion teacher in East London schools for almost 20 years and started URUBU collective back in 2009 as a Live Music Ecstatic Dance experience with Afro-Brazilian drummers & musicians.  \nSeth has been running various body-mind integration classes and workshops for many years. His inspiration comes from many sources including Humanistic & Body Psychotherapy\, the Human Potential Movement\, 5 Rhythms\, Tantra and Active meditations.  \nDiana Upite:  Trained in  classical  music from a young age\, and later  in contemporary music\, Diana carries a life-long passion for singing\, improvising and re-imagining traditional Celtic and folk songs with her own melodic vision.  A singer  at heart\, she connects deeply with the melodies and harmonies of ancient Europe and beyond.  \nDiana is passionate about bringing practices of rest and embodiment to others. Through her singing\, her intention is to guide you on a journey of reconnection and self-discovery\, reuniting you with the source of who you are. \nDiana also has a keen interest in making delicious raw chocolates and raw cacao drinks for cacao ceremonies\, private clients and is constantly experimenting with new flavours. She is a co-creator of many URUBU wellbeing classes\, workshops and retreats. \nMORE DETAILS ABOUT THE WORKSHOPS:\n\n\n\n⋘ ─ ∗TRANCE DANCE∗ ─ ⋙\n12:3OPM – 3PM \nA beautiful experience including Cacao Ceremony & Blindfolded Trance Dance Ritual. \nThrough the use of a blindfold\, raw ceremonial cacao\, a transforming breathing technique and dynamic rhythms\, percussion and ecstatic movements\, we enter into the consciousness of our body\, to feel\, to express\, to come home… to be completely Alive! \nTHE INVITATION \nTrance Dance is an invitation into deep liberation\, driven by our breath\, our intentions\, and energy\, and moving deeper than our verbal intellect\, we let go.  \n⋙ Our consciousness can then flow\, liberating itself into the dance… and then the ecstasy happens… \nNatural body movements and intuitive expressive dance are simply forms of an ancient pre-verbal language. It is an expression of the intelligence of our creative unconscious. Honouring the evolutionary intelligence encoded in our cells! \nWe all seek something to complete us and give us a feeling of fullness and meaning in our lives … – The answer is inside us! \nCACAO INTENTION SETTING RITUAL \nWe will set our intentions for Trance Dance with ceremonial grade cacao. Our Raw Vegan Cacao is prepared lovingly by Diana (who makes the best\, velvety tasting cacao in town for sure!). She uses ethically sourced\, highest quality ingredients from Guatemala\, directly from a reliable cacao bean farmer.  This rich velvety elixir is a doorway to the heart\, celebrated and honoured by the Incas\, Aztecs\, Mayans and in many ancient traditions. Cacao\, chocolate in its purest form\, is a heart opening & totally natural NON-psychedelic medicine\, containing an abundance of nutritional goodness & natural happy chemicals.  \nRelease what no longer serves you\, and invite in what you want more of in your life! \nFacilitated by Seth Newman \nMy purpose is to facilitate rituals that empower “the whole human being” through dance and music. Like Bioenergetics and other somatic processes\, for me\, Trance Dance was another door to inner discovery and transformation. I have always been passionate about contemporary forms of music and dance that reclaim our vital energy and our creative potential. I believe that “letting go into life” is synonymous\, with our “surrender to the body”. Letting go to the natural flow that moves through us. Letting go\, to let flow! \nIt is through “the flow experience” that we express\, feel and find ourselves\, without being connected to “flow” nothing creative happens. \nTrance Dance ritual is an ecstatic\, creative process that returns us to the consciousness of the body and reclaims our Soul. For those who want to immerse themselves and explore their full potential\, body\, heart & soul! \nGive yourself to the dance of life! The Trance Dance ritual invites you to have a direct experience of freedom\, truth and power\, with awareness. A drug-free ecstasy! \nFeedback from previous Trance Dance events: \n“An exceptional evening – everything I wanted and more!

An opportunity to let go and reconnect with yourself through deep relaxation and guided meditation while basking in Cosmic\, Ethereal  Vocals and Electronic Soundscapes\, Textures\, Crystal Singing Bowls\, Gongs  and much much more .  A Unique Experience! \nAs everything is vibrating so are we\, sometimes we can become out of tune in either mind body or spirit and dis-ease can start to take hold. Through the healing frequencies of sound therapy our bodies can be brought back in tune and we can begin to feel healthy and balanced once more. \nThe deep complex harmonics of multiple instruments quickly silence the mind and resonate through your body melting away boundaries between being awake and being asleep\, between inside and outside.  \nMeditate and relax into the deepest conscious rest\, cleansing\, releasing\, healing and harmonizing on all levels.  \nA beautiful way to spend a Sunday afternoon!  \n\n\n\n⋘ ─ ∗ ECSTATIC DANCE ∗ ─ ⋙\n6PM – 8PM \nBrought to you by: Ecstatic Dance London – We love to dance. We love music. We love to inspire\, to connect\, to heal and transform!  \nDiscover dance as a moving meditation\, body ritual\, awareness practice & ceremony \nIn our Sunday Ecstatic Dance sessions\, the musical focus will be more of a World/Medicine music\, Afro-House & a Tribal Flow vibe. Our Saturday Ecstatic Dance sessions tend to be more of a celebration with a light-hearted party atmosphere\, in these new Sunday Dances\, you’re invited to explore  “movement as meditation” with beautiful music to accompany your journey… \nEcstatic Dance is a dance/movement practice to  explore the exhilarating feeling of moving your body freely. You are invited to move\, play\, connect\, sweat\, stretch\, sound\, unwind\, renew\, release\, improvise\, transform. Be true to yourself\, while respecting your body\, in this space that we co-create together. Move your body\, unleash the wild dancing self without caring what people think\, claim your freedom\, open your heart & touch the infinite! \nOur Ecstatic Dance classes create a safe and respectful environment that embraces ‘all ways’. We offer a movement practice that supports your free expression of emotions and inner space through movement and music. Our intention for these Ecstatic Dance classes is self-exploration\, connection\, fun\, healing\, expanding human potential and community building through freestyle ecstatic dance.  \nEnter an open space…and with your bare feet explore the exhilarating feeling of moving your body freely. You are invited to move\, play\, connect\, sweat\, stretch\, sound\, unwind\, renew\, release\, improvise\, transform. Be true to yourself\, while respecting your body\, in this space that we co-create together. \nWHAT TO EXPECT: \n1. Next-level\, conscious\, inspiring electronic dance music \n2. A beautiful\, sacred\, heartful and fun dance journey \n3. A safe space for you to dance freely in \n4. Vibrant people who love to dance and love music! \nPRACTICE SPECIFICS: Warm-up:  stretch\, move/dance and reflect on the intention for the dance to a gentle sound wave. The Practice:  freestyle dancing to a large sound wave featuring Live DJ set. Some guidance & facilitation will be provided. And then we will let the music\, the community and our own inner space direct our steps\, our movements\, our expression\, our journey. Relaxation: Ecstatic Dance usually ends with a deep relaxation. \nECSTATIC DANCE GUIDELINES: \nNo late comers please. This is a shared journey from the beginning to the end and we aim to create a safe container for all dancers.  If you are more than 30 min late\, arriving after 6:30pm\, we won’t be able to let you join the session\, this is so we can all journey together. \n1. No talking during the dance (if you wish to talk to\, you are welcome to chat before/after dance  outside the building). When we dance without the chitchat\, something alchemical can happen on the dancefloor. A unified field of Being emerges and we feel both wild and free\, contained within ourselves And connected to something much\, much greater than our individual selves. \n2. Drug-Free\, Smoke-Free\, Alcohol-Free environment \n3. No photos or videos\, Mobile phones muted and out of sight  \n4. Care/Awareness for the co-created space and each other \n5. Move your body however you wish \n6. No spectating. Stay connected to your own body\, sensations\, emotions\, and feelings. Ecstatic Dance is about you and your relationship to the Dance. Dancers feel uncomfortable when being spectated at. Come prepared to Dance yourself free from inhibitions!  \n7. You can dance alone\, or with as many partners as (you) like to join. (If you’d rather not dance with someone\, thank them for the offer by placing your hands in prayer position at your heart – Namaste.) \n8. This is not a pick up place. Please respect all dancers (especially women) and do not ask for anyone’s contact details. If you wish to stay in touch with someone\, give them your  email instead of asking for their contact details.  No means no.  \n“Our bodies instinctively know what feels good or bad\, right or wrong. However\, often our heads get in the way. Ecstatic Dance is about finding our way through to what feels good. How can we use dance to consciously transform towards finding joy\, without denying our anger or sadness?  Ask yourself: what’s my body feeling in this moment? Does it feel good moving this way\, or that? Does it feel nourishing to dance with another\, or dance solo? Where do I most feel connected with Self? Let your body lead the way.” ~ Abigail Harris \nNo experience necessary. All welcome.   \nCACAO GRATITUDE CIRCLE \nAt Ecstatic Dance London we LOVE chocolate\, RAW chocolate-CACAO!  We will provide complimentary Raw Vegan Cacao to superfood charge your dance with us!  \nCacao is the ultimate heart opener\, it will give you energy\, revitalise your BodyMind inviting you to express\, release & unleash your creativity during the dance!   \nOur Raw Vegan Cacao is prepared lovingly by Diana (who makes the best\, velvety tasting cacao in town for sure!). She uses ethically sourced\, highest quality ingredients from Guatemala\, directly from a reliable cacao bean farmer.   \nJoin us to explore Cacao + Ecstatic Dance as a potent synthesis for Transformation. After the dance warm up we will take a moment to attune and connect to what we are grateful for\, giving thanks for all the abundance in our life. \n\n\nSAFETY GUIDELINES & PREVENTION MEASURES:\nWe kindly ask that you respect and follow Siobhan Davies Dance Studio safety guidelines.

Seth brings a wealth of experience holding heart-centered spaces. \nAs a musician\, Seth is very passionate about rhythm & drumming\,  has an MA in Community Music from Goldsmith College\, worked as a world music percussion teacher in East London schools for almost 20 years and started URUBU collective back in 2009 as a Live Music Ecstatic Dance experience with Afro-Brazilian drummers & musicians.  \nSeth has been running various body-mind integration classes and workshops for many years. His inspiration comes from many sources including Humanistic & Body Psychotherapy\, the Human Potential Movement\, 5 Rhythms\, Tantra and Active meditations.  \nDiana Upite:  Trained in  classical  music from a young age\, and later  in contemporary music\, Diana carries a life-long passion for singing\, improvising and re-imagining traditional Celtic and folk songs with her own melodic vision.  A singer  at heart\, she connects deeply with the melodies and harmonies of ancient Europe and beyond.  \nDiana is passionate about bringing practices of rest and embodiment to others. Through her singing\, her intention is to guide you on a journey of reconnection and self-discovery\, reuniting you with the source of who you are. \nDiana also has a keen interest in making delicious raw chocolates and raw cacao drinks for cacao ceremonies\, private clients and is constantly experimenting with new flavours. She is a co-creator of many URUBU wellbeing classes\, workshops and retreats. \nMORE DETAILS ABOUT THE TRANCE DANCE:\n\n\n\n⋘ ─ ∗TRANCE DANCE∗ ─ ⋙\n12:3OPM – 3PM \nA beautiful experience including Cacao Ceremony & Blindfolded Trance Dance Ritual. \nThrough the use of a blindfold\, raw ceremonial cacao\, a transforming breathing technique and dynamic rhythms\, percussion and ecstatic movements\, we enter into the consciousness of our body\, to feel\, to express\, to come home… to be completely Alive! \nTHE INVITATION \nTrance Dance is an invitation into deep liberation\, driven by our breath\, our intentions\, and energy\, and moving deeper than our verbal intellect\, we let go.  \n⋙ Our consciousness can then flow\, liberating itself into the dance… and then the ecstasy happens… \nNatural body movements and intuitive expressive dance are simply forms of an ancient pre-verbal language. It is an expression of the intelligence of our creative unconscious. Honouring the evolutionary intelligence encoded in our cells! \nWe all seek something to complete us and give us a feeling of fullness and meaning in our lives … – The answer is within! \nCACAO INTENTION SETTING RITUAL \nWe will set our intentions for the Trance Dance journey with ceremonial grade cacao. Our Raw Vegan Cacao is prepared lovingly by Diana (who makes the best\, velvety -asting cacao in town for sure!). She uses ethically sourced\, highest quality ingredients from Guatemala\, directly from a reliable cacao bean farmer.  This rich velvety elixir is a doorway to the heart\, celebrated and honoured by the Incas\, Aztecs\, Mayans and in many ancient traditions. Cacao\, chocolate in its purest form\, is a heart-opening & totally natural NON-psychedelic medicine\, containing an abundance of nutritional goodness & natural happy chemicals.  \nRelease what no longer serves you\, and invite in what you want more of in your life! \nFacilitated by Seth Newman \nMy purpose is to facilitate rituals that empower “the whole human being” through dance and music. Like Bioenergetics and other somatic processes\, for me\, Trance Dance was another door to inner discovery and transformation. I have always been passionate about contemporary forms of music and dance that reclaim our vital energy and our creative potential. I believe that “letting go into life” is synonymous\, with our “surrender to the body”. Letting go to the natural flow that moves through us. Letting go\, to let flow! \nIt is through “the flow experience” that we express\, feel and find ourselves\, without being connected to “flow” nothing creative happens. \nOur Trance Dance rituals are an ecstatic\, creative process that returns us to the consciousness of the body and reclaims our Life-energy. It is for those courageous dancers who want to immerse themselves and explore their full potential\, body\, heart & soul! \nGive yourself to the dance of life! The Trance Dance ritual invites you to have a direct experience of freedom\, truth and power\, with awareness. A drug-free ecstasy! \nFeedback from previous Trance Dance events: \n“An exceptional evening – everything I wanted and more! You know to experience such presence\, inner stillness\, sacred connection with other people\, in such a short time with strangers here in London is rare to find. The body – movement – connection – presence – passion and love. I felt it all… Grateful”  \n“Fantastic and deeply moving experience. Powerful and blissful dancing expertly guided by Seth. Deeply grateful for the experience!”  \n“It was a very powerful\, letting go\, ritual experience. Brilliant!” \n“I’m really surprised that I could feel so “high” without having to “intoxicate” myself!!! A great night and no hangover!” \n“Wonderful experience. A magical journey into yourself\, and an opportunity to just enjoy dance with a lovely group of soul dancers at the same time. Every movement body was a blessing. Thank you to Seth Newman to create this fantastic dance\, it has helped me lot after a hard week. May Love connect us all. xxx” \n“Brilliant! Brilliant!
