About
Ecstatic Dance Bali Inspired is a vibrant and energetic dance club located in Ipswich, New Zealand. Founded by DJ Chica, also known as Elene Marsden, this dance club aims to bring a fresh and new experience to the community. With a passion for dancing and a desire to help people reconnect with themselves and others, Elene believes that dancing is a tonic for those emerging from lockdowns and isolation.
At Ecstatic Dance Bali Inspired, they embrace the concept of ecstatic dance, which has been practised by ancestral tribes for generations. This dance form allows individuals to let go of any limiting beliefs they may have about their ability to dance. There are no set moves to follow, instead, participants let the music move them and express themselves freely. Whether you feel like dancing with a partner or solo, the emphasis is on self-expression and connecting with the rhythm of the music.
When attending a session at Ecstatic Dance Bali Inspired, participants can expect a welcoming atmosphere and a range of music that will take them on a journey. The session begins with slow music that gradually increases in tempo, leading to ecstatic peaks, and then transitions into relaxing music and a group meditation session. This diverse range of music allows for a dynamic and immersive dance experience.
One of the unique aspects of Ecstatic Dance Bali Inspired is its inclusivity. People of all ages and physical conditions are welcome to join in on the dance floor. There is no requirement for prior dancing experience, making it accessible to everyone. However, it is recommended to consult with a doctor if there are any concerns about vigorous exercise.
By participating in an Ecstatic Dance session, individuals can expect a shift in emotion as thoughts dissolve, and the focus shifts to the body. This can lead to an endorphin rush and a feeling of togetherness, as participants become part of something greater than themselves. The dance sessions typically last for 90 minutes, providing a fun and uplifting experience for all who attend.
Whether you're looking to exercise, express yourself, or simply enjoy the vibrant atmosphere, Ecstatic Dance Bali Inspired offers a unique dance club experience.
