DETAILED ENTRY INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE LOCATION

🌟 Ecstatic Dance Guidelines

Ecstatic Dance is a freeform movement journey, held in a safe and sacred space. These guidelines help co-create a respectful, connected, and transformative experience for all.

1. No Talking on the Dancefloor

• The dancefloor is a space for movement, not conversation.
• If you need to speak, please step outside or to a designated talking area.

2. Respect the Space and Each Other

• Dance however you feel — wild or still, fast or slow — just be mindful of others.
• Respect everyone’s personal space. Consent is key — no touch without clear permission.

3. Substance-Free Environment

• Ecstatic Dance is a sober space. No alcohol, drugs, or intoxicants of any kind.

4. No Shoes (Barefoot is Best)

• Dancing barefoot helps you ground into the earth and feel more connected.
• If you need foot protection for medical reasons, please wear soft, clean indoor shoes.

5. Phone-Free & Camera-Free Zone

• Let go of distractions. No filming or photography during the dance.
• Be present with your body, breath, and the collective energy.

6. All Movement is Welcome

• You don’t need to “know how to dance” — follow your body, not your mind.
• There’s no right or wrong way to move.

7. Honour the Journey

• We begin and end together. Please arrive on time and stay until the closing circle if possible.
• Allow yourself to move through the full arc of the experience — from grounding to expression to integration.

8. Children Welcome (Depending on Event Policy)

• Some dances are family-friendly, others are adults-only. Please check the event info in advance.

9. Leave No Trace

• Respect the venue. Take all belongings, rubbish, and water bottles with you.
