Ecstatic Dance Toronto

SEPT. 3 🎵🌿 SARAHTONIN IS BACK
Invitation ✨ Joy as an act of rebellion

Sarah Etherington aka Sarahtonin has been a part of ecstatic dance communities globally for 25 years and was invited to join the Salt Spring Dance Temple collective in 2021.

She brings a keen somatic awareness to her sets and has a unique ability to infuse her joy, unleashing the wild on the dance floor.

Sarah’s sets are a musical tapestry of sultry beats, deep liquidy bass, polyphony tracks that cultivate a wide range of movement, joyful connective world beats, Afro house and loads of percussion.

She creates journeys with long peaks, sweet surprises and delicious lyrical landings. Sarah loves to join the dance floor while playing and nurture the vibe with her wild unabashed joy.

🌍 Thursday Aug. 20 · Sp Guest MIXWELL Bonus: 2hr 📣 Ecstatic Dance Journey

Through years of travel in the wilderness, he found the music of the earth — tribal, tropical, indigenous sound made from instruments carved from native woods and the bones of wild animals.

Music born from the same soil as the people who channel it. Lake Atitlan, in the sacred Mayan highlands of Guatemala, became home. It was there he discovered ecstatic dance — and it was on those floors that his signature sound emerged.

A DJ style that weaves classical, organic, ceremonial and modern into one continuous journey. He brought that sound to Lightning in a Bottle, Symbiosis, Envision, Lucidity, Montreal Jazz Fest, and dance communities in over 150 countries.

Now Toronto! 100-200 people.
Zero phones. 100% pure energy.
Step into a new era of dance.

AUGUST 13 🤎 Cymatic Dreams
is the ambient, ethnic music project of Federico José Papp — layered vocal choirs forming a cushion of sound the listener travels through, guided by the melody of the Bansuri, the ancient Indian flute.

It’s an invitation to dive into your inner world as the music moves your energy, easily drawing you into a meditative state.

Rooted in a sacredness that seems to rise from the ancient core of the Earth, Cymatic Dreams offers a deep, mindful listening experience — a call to slow down, attend to each sound and layer, and be fully present in the hearing.
