Immerse yourself in the vibrations of the Earth with our Ecstatic Dance set from Energy in Motion, hosted at Centre of You, Melbourne on 3rd February 2024. This session is more than a dance; it's a spiritual odyssey designed to align and activate your Root Chakra—your connection to the Earth, to prosperity, lineage, and community.

Embark on a rhythmic journey that honours our planet and pays homage to the wisdom of our ancestors. As we dance, we tap into our most primal essence, finding the harmony between the roots that tether us and the spirit that compels us to explore.

In this dance, as in life, you may at times feel ungrounded, separated from your stable core, but it is in this space that we discover how to truly ground ourselves again. This set is crafted to help us find peace amid life's tumult, anchoring us to our origins through a solid rhythmic foundation from which we can launch into the cosmos, only to lovingly bring us back to Earth when the time comes.

Feel the beat, move your feet, and let your spirit soar. Connect, celebrate, and come back to yourself.

Ecstatic Dance for the Earth: Root Chakra Activation @ Energy In Motion

Chakaruna is a DJ/producer weaving tribal bass, organic house, downtempo, cinematic soundscapes, and global influences into deep, danceable journeys. From meditative stillness to ecstatic release, his sets carry ancestral echoes and contemporary energy.

Rooted in nature and ceremony, Chakaruna (Quechua for “World Bridger”) connects ancient wisdom with modern sound — moving bodies, opening hearts, and awakening spirit.

I love to play emotive, energizing electronic dance music, often drawn towards deep, downtempo electronica influenced from instrumental and organic soundscapes from the many cultures of this world. 

My intent is to create meaningful musical journeys suited to anything from a meditative state of reflection, hypnotic movements, and all the way through to ecstatic dance. 

Creating, or shifting the vibe of a space with intention and style is the core element of my sets, using an ebb and flow of musical moods to mold that of the listener, and to move the heart, the body and the soul.
