Music Vibe: Musical journey through the full spectrum of emotions
Theme: Dancing through the hard times - dance allows us to process and manage hard times with an open heart and playful approach.
Description: Two distinct waves of music that travel from soft and gentle to big and boisterous. The first wave will be reeeeeeally slow starting to allow deep grounding in the body. The wave will then build and epically crest and then return to a different type of gentle slowness. The second wave starts with a classical flourish that leads into the 2nd higher intensity peak. After this last peak will be a nice string of feel good and nostalgic grooves that allow for full emotional integration that completes with nourishing comforting stillness.
Bio: DJ Dusty Walker has been DJ'ing for dancing folks for over 20 years but found their true artistic calling DJ'ing to Pacific Northwest ecstatic dance communities.

Facilitator: Ren Langer
This movement-theater workshop blends ecstatic dance with theatrical devising techniques to ignite ensemble creativity. Participants will engage in structured improvisation, physical storytelling, and collaborative score-building that push beyond spontaneous play into intentional, co-authored performance. Using the body as the primary tool and play as the creative engine, we’ll investigate how to harness the shared pulse of collective imagination. Come ready to move, respond, and co-create!.
