On 11 October 2025 DJ TOM will create the musical journey for our Ecstatic Dance. Tom has been a regular DJ in dance events in Bern and is known for his passion for diverse musical genres. He draws on many years of experience and a deep understanding of the power of music. This opens doors to new soundscapes and invites dancers to embark on a journey of self-discovery through sounds, beats and movement.

A 120 min DJ-facilitated dance Journey to a varied mix of music.Dance in a safe space to free your mind and body and feel a part of it all.
The word ‘Ecstatic’ comes from Greek ‘ek’ (out) and ‘sta’ (to stand) and can be taken to mean ‘to stand outside of oneself’. Ecstatic Dance is way of getting out of your mind for a while and into your body.
Most English language dictionaries define ‘ ecstatic’ as “feeling or expressing overwhelming happiness or joyful excitement”. Ecstatic Dance is actually a way to practice welcoming ALL emotions and giving them physical expression.
No shoes, no booze, no chit-chat! At Ecstatic Dance Bern we provide a safe substance free space to dance freely without words.
Doors open and music begins at 19:30 PM. At 20:00 PM there is a guided warm-up followed by free dance alone or together with others, in whatever way the music moves you.
Entry fee is CHF 20 / 25 / or 30 depending on what you can afford.
Every BODY can dance!
