⚡️Join us on Saturday November 15th as we welcome back movement maestro Declan SOL, who has been spreading ecstatic dance and contact improvisation across the world for over a decade – from Boomland’s Being Fields to Ecstatic Dance Koh Phanhan’s famous Pyramid. His explosive set will be seamlessly accompanied by Aarif Amod’s energetic djembe beats! 💥

As always, we’ll provide a safe, judgement-free space without shoes, booze, talking or phones. Explore the movement of your body and experience primal release with our welcoming community of wild dancers. 🌀

🎧 Declan SOL has been deeply immersed in ecstatic dance and contact improvisation at an international level for over a decade, performing at some of world’s most epic ecstatic dancefloors, including Boomland’s Being Fields and countless festivals around Europe. As a multi-instrumental musician, he combines his skills to bring a magical, uplifting and soulful ecstatic dance experience. Expect a diverse spectrum of soundscapes and rhythms, creating an open and safe space for dancers to explore and express through movement…from poetic heart opening melodies to deep shamanic tribal grooves, from old school to cutting edge global bass…

🥁 We’re delighted to be inviting back our friend Aarif Amod to add some epic percussion to Declan’s epic set! Aarif is a Dublin-based artist with deep roots in South Africa and India. He’s a well-versed musician playing instruments like the Djembe, Udu Drum and Kalimba.
