Be Movement - A Conscious Dance with Hassti Hamidi

Join us for an evening of self-expression, connection and community, Hassti will curate the music for our upcoming dance journey!

We welcome all! All religions, all gender identities, all races, all shapes and sizes, all sexual orientations, all abilities and disabilities, all languages, and all ages, we welcome all!

What is Ecstatic Dance/Conscious Movement? Ecstatic Dance is a unique style of dance that’s all about free expression and letting your body move to the beat of your own drum. Unlike traditional dance classes, there’s no choreography to follow or steps to learn. Instead, it’s all about letting go and allowing the music to guide you, enabling authentic movement exploration. Ecstatic dance has been demonstrated to help with stress and anxiety reduction, promoting alignment of mind, body, soul, and spirit. During an Ecstatic Dance session, you’ll find yourself surrounded by a community of like-minded individuals who share a passion for movement and self-exploration. Everyone, regardless of their dance experience, is welcome to participate and enjoy the fun.
