Ecstatic Dance Journey
Featuring gEM
9pm-11pm
gEM loves music in all it’s facets. With her roots in NYC, she matured and steeped in California. Through a lifetime of chasing the all-night dance party and sounds that make her soul wiggle, gEM has acquired an eclectic musical palette that transcends timelines to blend genres with ease.
Her unique hippie whomp with an edge is what gives her beats that gEM-y bedazzled magic to shape moments worth moving in.

Ecstatic Dance Guidelines
1. Move however you wish
2. No talking on the dance floor
3. Respect yourself and one another
4. No Shoes, No Booze
5. Please also refrain from photos, videos, strong scents/perfumes, glitter and shoes on the dance floor.
6. Touch is Sacred ~ Many people dance in their own space, and others share their space with another. To engage in a dance with someone, use sensitivity: Are they open to sharing their space with me? Mirror movements, offer a hand, brush by, make eye contact, and see & feel how they respond.
