MEDICINE
DISCO
A systemized dance ritual and social event. No shaman culture here — just a healing dance practice with more of a club edge to it.
100% judgement free.
0% pressure to alchemize.
Enter to 20–30 minutes of cute tunes, time to orient to the space and the people arriving.
About 15 minutes in, Michael leads a guided warm-up — drawing on 25 years of education and training in body conditioning to properly prepare you, physically and non-physically, for the ride ahead. Joints open up, muscles wake up, breath drops down. You arrive fully before the journey even starts.
The full guided journey after that runs 1.5 to 2.5 hours, depending on the event.
Arriving late isn't recommended. Leaving early is totally fine.
Scaffolded, not shuffled.
Every set is built like a movie — a felt storyline from open to close. No track is at random. Selection is made for melodic harmony and for hitting the right emotion, the right body part, at the right time. You're part of the script.
"...ecstatic dance's edgy, funky, alternative..."
"I used to belong to an ecstatic dance community and stopped dancing altogether — until I found this. I was scared to come in, but now it's the only thing I'll go to."
"A whole nervous system reset."
"The way you talk to us on the mic is so welcoming — but you also dom us in a way, and I like it. It's kind of sexy too."
