Black Cat Cacao

✨Jimmy Greenwood is the founder of Black Cat Cacao, a craft rooted in years of exploration with ritual, creativity, and ancestral food traditions. His journey led him deep into Ecuador’s ancient cacao heartlands, where he connected with forest custodians and learnt to work with cacao as a gentle, heart-opening medicine. Each Black Cat Cacao trinity blend carries a trace of that sacred harvest 🤎pure, unsweetened, and crafted to warm the body, soften the heart, and awaken the senses.

✨❄️🔥 For this New Moon Winter Solstice, Jimmy offers cacao as a companion for renewal, helping us move into ecstatic dance and sauna with openness, clarity, creative expression and grounded presence✨

❄️🔥 DJ Sea Gypsee • Winter Solstice Edition 🔥❄️

Do not fear the darkness, it is where creation begins...

The Winter Solstice marks the turning of the wheel: the longest night before the return of the light. A unique moment to release, to listen, to let go of what no longer serves… and to welcome the quiet spark of a new cycle emerging from winter’s depths. ✨

For one of her favourite celebrations, Sea Gypsee returns to Ecstatic Dance Cardiff with a revitalising, deep, and delicious DJ set infused with her signature blend of tribal bass, dubstep, downtempo, deep & afro house, amapiano, folktronika, psytrance, and more. A playful ritual to shed old layers and meet each other in the simple, raw beauty of the present moment.

❄️ Let yourself be taken by the rhythm
🌹 Let yourself move between shadow & light
🔥 Let your body regenerate

Passionate dancer, DJ, space holder, and founder of the vibrant Ecstatic Dance Cardiff in Wales, Sea Gypsee🌊🧜‍♀️weaves global soundscapes that invite us to drop into presence, power, softness, and sensual aliveness.

✨ 🇫🇷 Born and raised in France, with a mindset that has always dreamt of answers beyond what she sees, and a background in art-therapy 🎨 & clowning, she approaches dance as a space to meet ourselves and each other as art in motion, no matter what that looks like!

🌍🎶Since 2021💫she shares her passion in the conscious dance scene, notably in Paris, London, Cardiff, Lisbon, Edinburgh, and Bristol, creating waves of heart connection, joy, and dancefloor magic where she goes.

🎶🔥Expect rejuvenating🥰deliciously dark and light blends of tribal bass, downtempo, afro house, ethnic beats, folktronika, deep house, psytrance… and unexpected drops of mystery ✨🌑💫
