MEN'S ECSTATIC DANCE FEATURING DJ Lenny Lens

About

In a world that increasingly disconnects us from our bodies, dance offers something rare: embodiment, emotional release without words, and a natural way to process stress and return to ourselves. Movement activates the parasympathetic nervous system. It reminds the body that it is alive.

This will be a space to explore strength, tenderness, wildness, and stillness — all parts of yourself, without performance or judgment. No experience with ecstatic dance is needed. Just a willingness to move.

What to Expect:
We begin seated in circle, setting a shared intention to move freely — without judging ourselves or each other. There is no one to impress, nothing to perform, no right way to do it.

DJ Lenny Lens will deliver a set of his signature music. Some men will dance. Some will sit or lie down and feel the music move through them — we call it “dancing on the inside”, and it’s just as welcome.

Everything here is an invitation, never a demand.

After we dance, we close with a short reflection in circle.
