What is Ecstatic Dance?
This dance is a celebration of all it is to be human in all our mysteriousness, to feel the sheer joy, ecstasy and bliss that resides within us. Find solace in our own skin, what we feel like inside.
To dance ecstatically is to be moved by spirit. It’s an allowing of source energy to move our body. It’s a surrender of our will and ego. It’s a lot more than just letting go and having a good time. It’s a cosmic experience of awakening.
To dance is from the ego
To BE danced is to surrender our ego
To BECOME the dance is to experience our own divinity
Ecstatic Dance is an embodied movement practice, a free form flowing dance and moving meditation. Connect to yourself to create authentic connections with others.
History of Ecstatic Dance
Globally people have always come together to dance in celebration, bonding a community. Ecstatic dance movement and drumming is probably the oldest path to spirituality.
During the dance, a state of deep-body consciousness or “embodiment” displaces thinking. Ecstatic dance effortlessly induces a true meditation state. Although ecstatic dance is an ancient practice, it has only recently become extremely popular.

What is Ecstatic Dance to Charlotte?
‘Everything in nature dances – waves in the ocean, leaves & branches on trees, fire smouldering. Dance is the most natural thing in the world.’
First introduced to Ecstatic Dance in 2018 in Bali with Deva, she then continued to dance back home in Scotland and in India. Charlotte has enjoyed dancing her whole life since clubbing & going to dance festivals in her 20’s & 30’s. Dancing till everything dropped away, she found freedom, a true liberation for her spirit.
In India in 2019 she experienced a big release, dancing 2-3 times per week for 2-3 hours each time – she felt a big release of energy and felt so sensual when dancing, empowered, connected with the other people there. She realised that dance is a wonderful tool of expression – the creative expressive side of her being and there is also a raw, tribal nature to dance, which gives so much freedom and spaciousness throughout the body. She feels so natural, wild and free when moved by the dance. It’s as though the body just dances itself.
Charlotte completed the “Ecstatica” Dance DJ & Facilitator training course with Deva in Bali in February 2020 and since then has been creating outdoor dances in Malmö and Karlskrona in Sweden which have been a great success. She is also an upcoming DJ, playing on outdoor parties & events accompanied by live saxophone & drums.
