Ecstatic Dance | An Inclusive Music & Movement Experience
Saturday June 13, 2026 8:00pm - 10:00pm PDT
The Glo Pad | Inside the Boys & Girls Club
Bend Ecstatic Dance is a large, attractive and radiant space for free-form, expressive movement with divinely organized music. Designed to invite you on a profound and embodied quest without shoes and without talking.

The lights are low, the music is amazing, consent and safety are highly emphasized and honored. No steps are taught and there's no expectation of how to move. Whatever is authentically coming through you is yours to explore on a playful mix of hardwood floors and soft gymnastic mats.

Ages 12+. Non-judgemental space, open to all bodies and all paths.

A curated menu of herbal elixirs crafted to nourish, uplift, and support your festival experience and a comfy spot to land and connect with others off the dance floor.  Cost for elixirs: sliding scale between $8-$15.
