‘FreedOm in the Forest’ Ecstatic Dance and Cacao Ceremony

‘FreedOm in the Forest’ Ecstatic Dance and Cacao Ceremony acontece a 8 de novembro de 2026, Hastoe Village Hall, em Hastoe.

Come join is in the Forest as we dance a somatic journey that is wild, barefoot and free! Held at a beautiful light filled hall near Tring, Hertfordshire. We start the ceremony in circle, drinking heart opening cacao and drumming and singing in devotion to this sacred earth medicine. The beginning of the dance is facilitated to get us out of our thinking mind and drop down into our feeling body. The facilitation is designed to help us let go of inhibitions, earth our energy and take us into the sacred portal of the dance. We then allow our bodies to move in whatever way they need, to express all our body is holding and wants to release. Luisa Bradshaw-White aka DJ LuluOm creates a wave of music that is earthy, shamanic, heart opening, tribal, euphoric and fun! Medicine music, healing shamanic sounds, It starts slow and hypnotic and builds and builds to a fast moving, free flowing, ecstatic peak of high vibrational euphoric tunes and finishes with a deeply grounding sound immersion. This is not a sober rave. It is a somatic journey using movement and sound to let go of anything that no longer serves us, so we can step into the fullest, most joyous version of ourselves. This is a space of non judgement. A space to be completely YOU. We welcome you. ☺️ High quality super comfortable headsets used for a deep immersive experience.
