This style of dance encourages free flowing movement in ways that make your body happy\, allowing yourself to express what you feel in the moment. People often find Ecstatic Dance to be restorative\, refreshing and revitalizing\, not to mention FUN! \nSoul Flow Sunday dances are open to all ages\, bodies and experience levels. Anyone can catch the vibe! \nSuggested: \nWear loose\, comfortable and weather-appropriate clothing\, bring your water bottle\, and a journal if you want to take down any notes or sketches about your experience. \nImportant: \n– Please take care of yourself during dance sessions.
