ECSTATIC DANCE WORKSHOPS

CONNECTION

EXPRESSION

EMBODIMENT

AYA Ecstatic dance is a free form of dance that anyone can do, whatever their age, shape, gender, mobility or fitness level. No prior knowledge is needed, there are no steps to learn and nothing to get right.

Aya dance is movement medicine made up of short ‘flows’ bound to a theme, vibration, colour or harmony guided by the maestro through the medicine music system.

It allows you to connect your body to the music, and, if you like, to connect with others in non-verbal communication of common movement. Join us and get lost in the joy of movement, expression, connection and embodiment.

Book an aya workshop

All aya workshops are two hours long. The session usually follows the following order:

  •  Warm up from doors open

  • Opening circle - welcomes and introductions for newbies to the practice, namaste

  • Warm up set - afro beat, house set to get you moving (with some optional guided movement)

  • Ecstatic set - tech house, indie dance, techno, psy-trance embodying ecstasy through dance

  • Cool down set - minimal, downtempo, ambient, meditative and esoteric

  • Healing soundscape experience - bring a yoga matt!

  • Closing circle - thanks, reflections and announcements, see you next time!
