ZOOM GUIDELINES FOR SUPPORTIVE SPACE –
1. We use Zoom for our online event. Using zoom through your computer will give better sound than via your smartphone (make sure to download the zoom app!) If possible, connect your computer or phone to an external sound system.
2. In order to guarantee a safe space for every participant, we ask not to take pictures or to shazam (you can always ask the DJ about music after the dance).
3. Please, stay in silence throughout the entire session.
4. Accommodate your home for movement.
5. Wear comfortable clothes and serve yourself water or tea.
6. Your presence is a present, so we ask of you to show up in time and to stay until the end (if you can).
7. On Zoom, you have the choice to have your camera on or off. We ask to keep it on. Seeing one another can help build connection, inspiration and safety during the dance.
8. You can use the chat to ask us questions (for instance concerning technical support).
9. We encourage everyone to write down our name and location below to your video by clicking the three dots.
10. After the dance, you will be given the option to unmute yourself and share about your experience with the group.
We look forward seeing and connecting to you – from the virtual dance floor in your own home!
ECSTATIC DANCE IS….
Ecstatic Dance is a unique experience, created and formed around a communal dancing idea: a conscious dancing that allows you to sink into your body. In Ecstatic Dance, you can explore, express, feel, move, touch and manifest through body, mind and soul. And by doing so, connect more deeply to life (me-we-big body).
The Heart of Ecstatic Dance is an embodied laboratory for movement exploration and dance. Especially in these current times of transition and change, we bring our intention towards re-connecting and re-weaving what we describe as the bigger realm: an Ecstatic Culture in which diversity, support and connection to the earth is being embraced.
