💟 MUSICAL JOURNEY  (approx 2hrs) 

Sophie delivers uplifting deep sets, with diverse flavours of techno, ambient, world, soul, grime and EDM leading to an emotional pay off that levels the dance floor into one synchronised mind.

You can find her Ecstatic Dance Mixes on Soundcloud under DJ Sophie Bolton.

💟 IMPORTANT NOTES : 

NOTE : we will do our best to stay on time, but due to the variables of wild dancing with a large group, things can easily slip behind. 

💟 CACAO

We gather at a magical hawthorn tree to celebrate it’s time of flourishing and to root our connection into the these ancestral lands. 
We make offerings here and give thanks for the unfolding miracle of life. 

The Ceremonial Cacao will be brewed  lovingly with hawthorn blossom  and offered  in a  brief ritual of intention setting by Kristina Evans.
BRING A CUP IF YOU CAN!

💟 (R) - EVOLUTION  

Going forward we will be giving you as clear of a picture as possible of what to expect at a particular event.

 Some events  will be  titled Ceremonial Dances and a some will be  Community Dances. 

> Ceremonial Dances  : Closed Container with no talking during the dance. 
> Community Dances (THIS ONE)  : Still a Deep-Dive Dance Journey, although a little more open and relaxed for socialisation if thats what you choose.

💟BRING 

• A Cup for Cacao
• Ample Water  (More than you think)
• A Rug to Sit on
• A Simple flower offering for the holy thorn.
• Suitable Clothing (could be windy)
• A jacket with hood if a chance of rain.
• Your Personal Intention to Dance.

💟 FINALLY

We are blessed, we are blessed.
Yes, Yes!
We are sooo very, truly blessed. 
May the sun shine in your heart and your prayers bring warmth to a world that needs them.

Bring on the summer!
