ECSTATIC DEEP WAVES
~ A 3 Hour Transformational Deep-Dive Dance Journey ~

We are SO excited to welcome you to the third edition of Deep Waves in the iconic venue - Jungle Amsterdam 🌿

Deep Waves Ecstatic Dance is created by dancers who feel that something more is possible in a conscious dance journey. Over the years, we’ve witnessed an evolution in the field... and with it, a new desire: to go further. To explore not only the depths within, but also how we relate, connect, and move with others. Because it’s here, in honest movement, emotion and raw connection, that we meet all parts of ourselves, light and shadow, strength and vulnerability... and are invited to dance and be with it all with some space for integration.

We have been truly mind blown at the level of depth and beauty the three hour journey has revealed so far and cannot wait for the next!

Deep Waves is not just an extended ecstatic dance. It’s a full-spectrum, intentionally held journey for inner work, healing, and self-discovery. Guided by an expertly woven 3-wave musical arc, held by skilled spaceholders, and set in a safe, immersive atmosphere, this is a dance for those ready to surrender, to transform, and to integrate.

This also isn’t about pushing hard for three hours straight. It’s about learning how to move with your energy. To be present, to witness, to trust, and to flow with whatever shows up.

If you feel the pull to explore what lies beyond your usual edges, or if you’re simply curious to discover how deep movement can really go... this space is for you.

THE DEEP WAVE CONTAINER
To create a space that is as powerful, safe, and transformative as possible, we hold to the following agreements:

1. No talking

2. Barefoot or socks only

3. No substances

4. No phones

5. Respect all boundaries

6. Arrive on time (no entry after the opening circle)

7. No overtly sexual behaviour. We LOVE contact dance and exploring our sensuality, alone and together, and of course sexual energy may rise.
However, Deep Waves isn’t a place to explore your sexuality with others, it’s a space of inner inquiry, dynamic meditation and observation of our urges and desires.

** Another note is that at we, as organizers, commit to never filming or photographing what happens inside. This is your space to be fully present, without distractions or observation **

Her musical journeys are a Kaleidoscope of Cultures, Emotions, Personalities and Stories, that are intended to take you on a deep & transformative journey of self discovery, full expression, celebration and alignment.


YOUR FACILITATOR
