Ecstatic Dance Festival features free-form conscious dance in a family atmosphere. Melt boundaries and expand your creativity with Ecstatic Dance teachers and musicians over 6 enchanting days on the lovely island of Cyprus.
The festival organisers say:
“Our first festival was created in 2017 by our growing love for Ecstatic Dance with a mission to bring different worlds, cultures and backgrounds together in one beautiful place. We welcome all lovers of dancing and life from different ages, experiences and countries – this combination makes it beautiful and powerful as we experience our oneness in the dance in freedom and joy. Whether you step onto our dance floor alone or with friends – by the end of the week everyone feels like family.
Our previous events have been sold out every year and we are thrilled to welcome you to our Dancing Tribe in Cyprus!
Ecstatic Dance is a liberating dance and movement practice inviting you to explore the exhilaration of moving your body freely.
In this space, we co-create a safe environment where you can move, play, connect, sweat, stretch, sound, unwind, renew, release, and transform. Be true to yourself while respecting your body—unleash your wild dancing self without worrying about judgment. Claim your freedom, open your heart, and touch the infinite!
Specific steps are not required; instead, you abandon yourself to the rhythm and move freely, leading to a trance-like state and a feeling of ecstasy. Experience connection to others and your own emotions as you embark on a meditative journey, while being encouraged to self-expression through movement. As you enter the dance-floor, you are invited to let go of judgments and expectations, allowing yourself to feel emotions, sensations, and the connection of body, mind, and spirit.
Guidelines of Ecstatic Dance are: no shoes (comfy clothes), no booze (or any other drugs), no talking during the dance—body language only.
Embrace all forms of expression; there’s no ‘right and wrong’—trust in the journey and move through everything that arises.
