Move with the rhythm of life. Pulsate with pure energy
Tribal cultures
know that dance is a vital form of expression. Civilized people may have
forgotten this, but it is never too late to reclaim our birthright for ecstasy. Ecstatic
Dance, is a space to get high on pure energy. Our bodies contain
bliss hormones. As we move into free-flowing dance, it is natural for joyous
energy to be released from within allowing ourselves
to be totally taken over by the music. This phenomenon can be called 'getting
high on life.' The dance is held barefoot, to support dancers to have agility
in movement. No previous experience of dance is required.
This ecstatic dance
event will be held on the Full Moon night, celebrated as the night of Buddha’s
enlightenment. Just as the full moon affects the ocean, it affects our bodies -
which contain nearly eighty percent of water. This night is an invitation to
allow a conscious, celebratory and blissful uplifting of our energies in deep
connection with the Buddha Moon.
In this event, Damini will DJ and lead with a fusion of
many genres of uplifting vibrant music from across the globe, aimed at
loosening up inhibitions and discovering our wild free spirited self.
Damini is a wild, ecstatic dancer. She experiments with
different styles of music and the variety of movements they inspire in the
body. Going into a range of meditative practices over the last years, dance
emerged as the most spontaneous form of mediation for her. "All that is
needed is to be loose, natural and to allow the interplay of the rhythm with
the body; the rest, happens," is her sutra for ecstatic dancing. Damini is
also an award winning indie filmmaker and a photographer.
