 About the Event 

Come dance freely, while enjoying incredible music in an art gallery full of wonderful humans.

Yes, you are (very highly) encouraged to arrive in costume. And, please be mindful of any outfit accessories, as you'll want to be able to maneuver respectfully amongst others. Let's get FUNKY...

How Ecstatic Dance works:

We arrive into a big circle with deep breaths. Amy and Daniel invite intention and presence into our space with a collective prayer for the dance ahead.

We then fly into a freeform dance journey, riding The Merchant's 2-hour musical wave, mixed live through a variety of genres and tempos for our ecstatic delights.

The music ultimately fades into the blissful harmony of singing bowls and chimes. Deep relaxation. We close back in circle for the opportunity to witness shares and reflections. And so it is...

About The Space:  Biome Slowcraft is an art workshop, event space, and retail shop designed to be "for the artist." Birthed and nurtured by Dennae Tirrell, the expansive gallery wearhouse is a perfect landing pad for deep breaths, heart-sending music, and twirling bodies of all shapes and styles. Mood lighting and quad loud speakers will encourage us to effortlessly melt into collective presence. It's an wonderful space, certainly worthy of inspiring your dance...

About the DJ:  Daniel, aka The Merchant, lives in Bozeman and loves the outdoors. He's passionate about weaving music, breath, movement, voice, and visualization into amazing experiences, explored in a variety of locations.

"When we step on the dance floor, we include our whole selves, even the frightened parts that want to hide. We dance through pain and sorrow. We dance with joy until our hard edges soften and our masks fall away. We meet other courageous dancers, weaving unbreakable threads of connection. Our friendships transcend the boundaries of time and space. And it all melts together - beat, movement, breath - into a swirling vortex we call community. As the throbbing pulse of the dance floor matches our own heartbeat, we know, without a doubt, we are not alone" - Words by Donna Carroll, founder of Ecstatic Dance International
