✨ limiting conversation on the dance floor, this keeps the energy flowing (there will be a designated space and time to chat💖)
✨ we invite you to explore the shoe-less experience of dancing barefoot on the Earth👣
✨this is a substance free event
✨this is a judgement free dance journey, feel free to express yourself!
Our featured artist for this dance is Quiet Hours Co-Founder, Melissa officinalis!
Melissa officinalis has been facilitating Ecstatic Dance since 2019 when she first started Quiet Hours Silent Disco with friends in upstate NY. She has spent many years dancing at Ecstatic Dances around the world, and collaborating with dance communities hosting Ecstatic Dance Silent Discos around the country, including Ecstatic Dance OC in California, Ecstatic Dance Charleston in South Carolina, Exploring Within and at the Mauna Kea Resort on the Big Island of Hawaii, and her first festival debut at Dance Beyond Campout in the Berkshires. Melissa’s home base is in Ecstatic Dance Hudson Valley, facilitating regular Ecstatic Dance Silent Discos at Tweefontein Herb Farm in New Paltz, featuring different artists each month. Weaving beats from around the world, her sets are a heart opening journey, closing with live sound healing instruments. Her name Melissa officinalis comes from the botanical name for Lemon Balm, connecting to her passional for herbalism and the magic in dancing outside in nature.
Parking is limited, please carpool with friends if possible .
