🧹 Learn the Witch Dance – Back by Popular Demand!
✨ The Witch Dance is back at The Zen Shop’s Witchfest and we couldn’t be more excited to welcome you! If you’ve ever wanted to experience the magic, community, and empowerment of this viral dance, this is your chance to join us for an unforgettable day.
🌍 The Witch Dance was first choreographed in 2016 by the women of Wolfshager Hexenbrut (The Wolf Hunter’s Coven) in Wolfshagen, Germany. Performed to Peter Fox’s Schuttel deinen Speck (“Shake Your Bacon”), the dance quickly became a global phenomenon. Videos of the performance spread worldwide, inspiring covens, pagan groups, and spiritual communities to add their own variations.
💃 The dance combines grounded, earthy steps with powerful movements that channel witchy energy in a fun and empowering way. Since 2019, the Durham Region Chapter Witch Dance at The Zen Shop has brought this tradition to life right here in Oshawa. Our students and community members love this event for its authenticity and the sense of connection it creates. Each year, spots fill quickly — and now it’s back for Witchfest Oshawa 2025!
🕰️ Here’s what you’ll experience when you join us to Learn the Witch Dance:
