As the New Year begins, we gather once again to move, to feel, and to elevate. This is an opportunity to leave behind what no longer serves you in 2024, to embrace the energy of renewal, and rise into the limitless possibilities that await.

"Elevation" is our theme, a celebration of your power to lift yourself and others up through movement, connection, and presence. Together, we will ascend to new heights, guided by rhythms that spark joy, beats that awaken the soul, and an energy that unites us all.

There are no steps to follow here, no judgments, no limits—only the freedom to express, to explore, and to discover the ecstasy of being fully alive. Whether you are a seasoned dancer or new to the floor, your energy is essential, your presence is perfect, and your dance is uniquely yours.

Let this be your reset, your recharge, and your reminder that in movement, we find magic. Together, let’s create a night to elevate our spirits and welcome the New Year with open hearts, open minds, and open arms.

The Program:

This time DJ Rachel Inez (@essence.in.motion) will have the full set for herself so be prepared for an evening of good vibes and a loving ecstatic trance.. (Good) Jop, our shahman friend will provide an always heartfelt opening ceremony, so you will be received well and be grounded and in tune with yourself when the dance starts. There will be food as well this time. We’ll have a nice and warm vegetarian meal of dahl with rice (if you have any allergies, let us know via TheWayofEcstasy@outlook.com). Refreshments like water, and tea are freely available, and you’ll also be able to buy some cacao for €3,-. The Nachtzuster’s bar will also be open after the dance, for some other drinks at the after-chill session but we don’t serve alcohol during the ecstatic dance as per the rules.
