Ecstatic dance
Ecstatic dance is a form of dance where the dancers, without the need to follow specific steps, abandon and re-energise themselves to the rhythm. Move freely as the music takes you, leading to trance and a feeling of ecstasy!
Ecstatic dance has been practiced throughout human history, in classical times by the Maenads, followers of the wine-god Dionysus. In the ancient and widespread practice of shamanism, ecstatic dance and rhythmic drumming are used to alter consciousness in spiritual practices.
Ecstatic dances are known also from religious traditions around the world, including Sufi dervishes; from Nigeria, Morocco, Ghana, and Senegal, and the Candomble of Brazil, derived from African traditions.
Modern ecstatic dance was revived by Gabrielle Roth in the 1970s and formalised in her 5Rhythms practice; it is now found in variants across the western world.
The effects of ecstatic dance begin with ecstasy itself, which may be experienced in differing degrees. Dancers are described as feeling free & connected to others, and to their own emotions. The dance serves as a form of meditation, helping people to let go off stress and to attain serenity!
