What to Expect
@ Five Hours of Ecstatic Dance: Come early, stay late, or slip in when the rhythm grabs your ankles.
@ Contact Improvisation workshop: Did you want to improvise in dance with another body? Andrew is an excellent guide for this.
@ Firedancing Workshop: A gentle invitation into movement, connection, and embodied curiosity. Open to all levels — and especially to those who always thought “I can’t dance.” Trust me, you can.
@ Cacao ceremony with DJ Brian Bergman: Earthy, soulful, sun-kissed.
Our Values:
Zero Waste. Respect the ocean. Bring what you need and take it all home.The kelp will thank you.
Zero Alcohol. Because dancing sober is its own revolution.
Zero Colonialism: A commitment to honouring indigenous movement traditions, the land we dance on, and the communities we support through this fundraiser.
Community contribution: All income from ticket sales and donations go directly towards establishing the Greenhouse Clay Studio for single mothers in Vrygrond. You are not just attending — you are participating in a generational shift.__________
