Alex, your resident DJ, will take you on a magnificent musical journey so you can lose yourself on the dance floor Thursday 13th October @ the tranquil, comfortable and modern Cwmni Theatr Arad Goch close to the ocean, Aberystwyth.

We are lucky to be dancing in the top gallery room, which includes a beautiful stained glass window to inspire and transfix as we dance!

The night will begin with an opening circle and warm up as we ground, breathe and connect with our fellow dancers.

After dancing for about an hour and a half, we will guide you into deep relaxation before ending the night with a closing circle and optional shared tea.

We offer a fully immersive environment with sound system and gentle lighting.

No dance or meditation experience necessary.

Every Body is welcome!

No booze, shoes if u choose.

Be with us in the present moment and dance yourself freely, whatever emotions you’re holding - worries, joys or sorrows, dancing can help to move energy and shift your mood!

Leave feeling relaxed, refreshed and inspired.

We don't give you instructions on how to dance or who to dance with.

Dance Meditation International is dancing to the beat and rhythm of your own heart.

Free herbal teas & water are all available - Please bring your own drink of choice too (non alcoholic of course!)

Feel welcome to sit or lie down to experience the magical healing sound.

Q&A

What time do your dance meditation sessions finish?

We normally try to finish dancing at 9pm, unless otherwise advertised. However, free tea is available afterwards. We suggest being present for this as it's a very nice way to relax after the session.

Will I have to dance with other people?

We never say that you need dance with other people, but you can if you want. We ask that you are sensitive towards other people and use your judgement as to whether they want to keep to themselves. As we hold the space we want to provide you with the freedom to dance as you wish.

What kind of music do you use?

We use music from a range of sources. From classical, house and alternative, to electro-swing, folk, and trance. If it has the right energy, we'll play it.

What should I wear?

Anything you wish- but it will need to be comfy! We also suggest layers as it can may get hot. We suggest dancing barefoot but you may want to wear indoor trainers if you prefer.

What is your age limit?

Whilst our dance meditation sessions are for over 16s only, We do not have an upper limit!

Do I have to follow set dance steps or instructions?

We will not give you instructions on how to dance. You can dance however you wish.

Will there be a lot of talking during the session?

We request that words are left behind during the session. You may cry, laugh or shout, but, as in meditation, try to lose yourself in the music as you go deeper.

Do I have to dance for the whole session?

You can sit and meditate or lie down at any time in the session. We only ask that you do so at the edges of the space, leaving the middle area unobstructed for those who wish to dance. You may wish to bring a blanket or yoga mat to use at the edges of the room when sitting or lying.

What is your cancellation policy?

If you fail to attend a session that you have booked we cannot offer you a refund and you will be charged for your place.
