Vendredi 06/11 - Ecstatic Dance - Bruno Ayme - Temps et Mouvement - CocoSwing

Theme: Time, Movement and Punctuality! :-)

Following feedback about the last Ecstatic Dance with Bruno Ayme, which started at 19h50, we have decided to pay special attention to keeping to the schedule. Please arrive by 19h15. The opening circle will begin at 19h30.

The theme of this Ecstatic Dance will be Time, Movement, Love and Dance.

Tonight’s embodiment session is an invitation to rediscover your body in a different way.

Then the music takes over. A live set built in a raw, vibrant soundscape: electric cumbia, desert gnawa, wild ’60s soul, organic drum & bass, shamanic techno, inhabited silences. Territories spanning cultures and eras—guided and brought together, but always ready to surprise.

The set takes shape by listening to what the dancers bring—their presence, their momentum, their letting go.

Here, the dancers are heard. You can let go of the shore, because what comes next belongs to the bodies...

A reminder of the basic rules to follow at Ecstatic Dance:

• no talking

• no shoes and keep your body covered

• no objects (phones)

• stay sober

• kindness, consent, respect for yourself and others

Apart from these requirements, you are completely free to do whatever you want and feel during the 2 hours.

Open to everyone aged 16 and over.

The facilitation (welcome, circles, embodiment session) and live DJ set will be led by Bruno Ayme.

A dancer for over 30 years (modern jazz, African dance, hip-hop, contemporary, 5 Rhythms, Gaga Dance), former radio host and music critic, he creates embodied, narrative dance journeys in service of the body, trance and collective experience.
