Ecstatic Dance UK is London's first and only Sunday morning dance. Our mission is to create a safe, sacred space for people to come and express themselves through movement—regardless of age, gender, background or social status. We aim to make Ecstatic Dance accessible to everyone. We believe dancing is a form of therapy which can help us connect to ourselves and to others. We embrace inclusivity, freedom of expression, openness and positivity. Come and dance with us!
