Thank you for your words- I was raised by very religious parents who forbade any form of dancing. I’m 58 and determined to finally let my body move like I’ve always wanted to but felt shame and embarrassment - I think I’ve found my path

Beautiful video my friend! I’ve been facilitating ecstatic dances in Knoxville, TN for 15yrs now. It’s changed my life & my marriage for the better. My husband does it too. ❤

Oh wow, around 20 years ago I was taking a dance class at my local community college thst sounds a lot like this, but they called it continuum. I took it several times and to say it was life changing, life affirming, and helped me feel more comfortable in my own body, allowed me to unlock areas that were locked and in pain due to past trauma, and feel safe being myself in ways I hadn’t thought possible is an understatement.

I’ve been feeling a deep pull to return to that but unfortunately the class is no longer offered and my former instructor no longer seems to offer classes anywhere I can find. I just found out that this year there’s going to be an ecstatic dance event held within a festival I attend and one of my best friends mentioned wanting to go to it, so I came to google to learn more about what it is about. Sounds like EXACTLY what my soul needs so I’m going to make sure I get the chance to attend. Thank you for this video, I appreciate you ❤

You're truly honest, inspiring me to learn more about ecstatic dance! Thanks a lot!

[KonohaNoSai]

Wow ! Your videos talks to me so much!
About self acceptance, expressing sensuality/sexuality in movements...
Your video and ecstatic dance could be a revelation to me...
Next step is to try and enjoy!
Thanks for sharing! I'm moved!

[TruthQuest]

I'm all about the dance! It's how I release anger and anxiety in order to regroup.

[malakissami]

thank you for this incredible video i love dancing especially with no roles being free of expressing my body I wish if we had such kind of dance in my country

[Estiriat]

Thank you love - i'm organising dances myself and it is my love and my passion - creating spaces for other human beings to feel, express whatever is there and heal in community :-) So thank you very much for sharing

[theresaombienetre]

Thank you so much for this video. I felt every word of your experience. I recently realised through videos of the ecstatic danse movement that it can be a new way to explore myself. I have this energy trapped inside me that needs releasing and i feel movement of yoga and danse can be the way. I'm looking forward to experiencing it. And now i'm more aware of how <3

[VikasMishra.]

I listened very consciously to your guidance really appreciable and wonderful and i recently started Esctatic dance.

One think also I want to share with you that you will catch so many connections but you have to choose right one with their dance moves, eyes and most important heart frequency.

Really appreciate again your R&D about Esctatic dance God bless you 🙌

[stephaniechoward]

Such an awesome video and very beautiful. I'm so glad you faced your fears and learned to release yourself during the music. It's so freeing isn't it? I love how everyone is dancing in their own way yet we're all connected. ❤ Love and light to you.

[deboralorandini]

Thanks for this video ! Such a powerful declaration!

[olgazgiep]

You‘re such a heartwarm soul. Thank you. I need to try estatic dance for sure, cause I felt it to much when you talked about connecting with the music and jo through a whole journey while dancing. I knew this from going to clubbing (super conscious one) and also I have been to something called “therapeutic dance” once and felt in love and felt so free to dance - what scared me for years. ❤️

[GriffonNeumann]

I just discovered ecstatic dance and I already can't wait to go to my first dance (I found an event in my state tomorrow, yay!!) I've entered a meditative state when dancing before and it's so beautiful and I can't wait to go somewhere that fosters that environment

[liberatorylove]

Absolutely beautiful! It's so difficult to explain ecstatic dance. Such a deeply encompassing video!

[yasatlove]

Love it… love your channel and the way that you explain of it all ❤

[MsChiff]

Beautiful explanation and introduction to such an amazing art form. I've been looking for something like this for a while but I didn't know what it was called. Thank you for the video and sharing your story and your vulnerability. You are beautiful and loved 💖

[karliestrynadka]

Thank you💛 I loved dancing so much growing up it was so freeing. I can relate to what you are sayin about body image and sensuality but it feels so good and powerful to tap into that side of ourselves and just love ourselves as we are💛
