About Ecstatic Dance:

Ecstatic dance is a free form dance experience guided by live DJ music. The music was selected to create a journey-like flow throughout the session. So it progresses from slower, softer tunes at the beginning to more energetic and vibrant rhythms as we start dancing. We will provide some guidance and facilitation, but the music, the community, and your own inner space will be your guides.

*Participation in Wicklow Ecstatic Dance events is at your own risk. We are not responsible for any injuries or loss of personal belongings. By purchasing a ticket, you acknowledge and accept this.
