"The dance is not where we lose ourselves. But where we find ourselves."
- Gabrielle Roth
Bearfoot Ecstatic Dance
The story of Bearfoot
From early days in Ballet, Tap and Modern classes to dancing in London clubs, Ibiza, on beaches and in jungles around the world, dance has been a lifelong passion and medicine.
The name DJ Bearfoot came in a shamanic journey. I asked my Spirit Allies for guidance and they gifted me the name Bearfoot, Bear being one of my allies. It's also a playful nod to dancing barefoot and moving with grounded, natural energy.
Ecstatic Dance offers a liberated space free from drugs, alcohol, chit-chat and mobile phones. A true opportunity to dive inward and let the music move you.
As an Ecstatic Dance DJ and Facilitator, I tune into the energy of the group, crafting a heart-focused set where each track is carefully chosen to evoke a profound feeling in the dancer. The music is a blend of world, ambient and house tracks, meticulously curated to inspire movement and foster connection from the very first beat.
What happens
Shaking Medicine We begin with a shamanic and somatic practice known as shaking medicine. This allows the body to release nervous, anxious energy and stress, setting the stage for deeper immersion in the dance.
Heart of the Dance Following the shaking practice, we move into the heart of the dance. Here you are free to express yourself fully and let the music guide your movements.
Relaxation We conclude with a period of relaxation, allowing your body and mind to integrate the experience.
Silent Disco Weather permitting, sessions are held as a silent disco outside, enhancing the connection with nature. Indoors, silent disco creates an almost zero noise environment, just the sounds of bare feet on the floor and people humming... beautiful.
Dates coming soon.
