Esctastic Dance
with Bijou
Ecstatic dance is an inner/outer journey, an authentic moving meditation where presence & embodied joy can be experienced. It creates a direct body-mind-spirit connection, allowing our body & inner guide to be our own teachers. It is a form of dance in which the dancers release themselves to the rhythm & move freely as the music takes them, leading to a trance-like state & a feeling of ecstasy.
About the Facilitator
Bijou began exploring Yoga in 2014, far from civilisation in the Amazon jungle, a calling that led him into deeper study of this ancient art. He completed a 300-hour Teacher Training Course in 2016, following his initial 300-hour certification at Yoga Vidya Gurukul, Nasik, in 2015, and also earned a Thai Massage Certificate the same year. With over 10 years of teaching experience, along with initiations in Buddhist Meditation, he integrates mindfulness seamlessly into his yoga practice. His work with individuals recovering from trauma and substance abuse has strongly shaped his meditative and therapeutic teaching approach. In parallel, Bijou brings over 20 years of experience as a musician, producer, and DJ, having performed at festivals and events across the globe.
