ecstatic dance mixes & the ecstatic wake-up call sets
the Ecstatic Wake-Up Call is a weekly virtual dance that gathers at 7 am central time. the music is structured in a way that enables participants to move from their sleepy morning selves into bright alertness for the day. some participants even start the dance from their beds!
its structure is different from a normal ecstatic dance wave. the music starts out very slow and meditative, languishing in this ambient space for a long time. there’s permission to rest, to sleep, to cuddle under blankets, to just be. after a good long while in that space, it slowly begins to build a beat and gentle movement. think: twists, deep stretches, hands and knees, big breaths. eventually, the energy builds to its peak, where we close the dance.
this steady build upward is meant to take you from sleeping to wakefulness, so you can be a bit more prepared to handle your day with energy, stability and grace.
