Offered this month at The Ecstatic Odyssey:
Contact Beyond Contact
Led By Emmy Kinnally
​
Contact Beyond Contact (CBC) is an exploratory dance space which incorporates the practices of Contact Improv, Authentic Movement and Qigong.
CBC is space to get curious of your relational patterns with others in a guided and safe space. �We will learn dance "tools" which invite participants to intentionally move and dance in new ways with a partner.
This is an opportunity to create art through movement with another while staying present with your mind, heart and spirit. From this connected place, magic can be created!
No dance background is necessary. If you can move your body, you can do CBC! We will be rotating partners throughout the class so you do not need a +1!
To follow this class, you're invited to join the Ecstatic Dance from 7-9pm. We believe this class will lead us into a connective, heart-led space for the rest of the evening!​

Ticket options are available through Eventbrite & Venmo: @skyvisionyoga OR cash at the door!

What is Ecstatic Dance?
Ecstatic dance is a freeform movement journey, held in a safe and sacred space, where you can explore and express yourself through dance. There are no steps to follow and no right or wrong way to move. It is a space to connect with your body, your emotions, and others in the community, fostering a sense of freedom and joy. The music guides you through different rhythms and energies, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the experience.
​
The intention of ecstatic dance is to create a space of presence, fostering curiosity about the patterns held in our bodies and minds that keep us separate and hold us back from our expression. In this space, one can accept and release feelings of shame and judgment, entering into a state of loving acceptance of one’s body and wholeness.
​
Ecstatic dance is open to people of all ages, shapes, sizes, and backgrounds. Each individual’s uniqueness adds to the diverse dance we create together.
​
It is a space where you are the creator and guide of your movement. There is no need to impress anyone or look a certain way, as we move to experience the feeling of being alive. All forms of movement are celebrated, whether lying on the ground, flowing like a wave, or jumping in the air. Your experience and expression are welcome!
​
This is a space of creative exploration, playfulness, child-like joy, understanding, respecting one another’s process, non-judgment, and heart-led connection. Come immerse yourself in a magical atmosphere, embrace your creativity, and dance the night away with us!
