Top Ecstatic Dance Sets

This day is kind of like two birthdays for me.  While it’s my 43rd, it’s also my 20th!
It was April 2003 that I moved from Kauai to Big Island where I found Ecstatic Dance in it’s early form.  It’s silly how much I can gush with gratitude for Ecstatic Dance.  But I do so because I believe it saved my life.

This is going to be hard to share and probably hard to read.

I wish I could say I came to Big Island with grace.  
When I came from Kauai, I felt utterly alone, heartbroken, angry, and confused.
It was the most painful, and difficult time of my life.  
My partner, newborn child and I were splitting up, and for good reason.
I was a mess in so many ways.  

My waking hours were filled with anguish.  There’s no way to explain the extent to the suffering I was experiencing.  I can just say it was impossible to see a way through it.
One day while walking through Pahoa I was brought to Kalani Honua… to Ecstatic Dance.
It was just a few people dancing barefoot to classic rock, pop, and a few electronica songs.  
No talking.  Just dancing.  
No direction.  Just movement.
I felt at home.  

Where my emotions once felt like someone standing on my chest, they finally moved through me.
I felt relief, integration and a bit of community.  
It became my weekly church where I diligently returned in search of peace, movement, release, integration, and connection.

I soon started to DJ.  
I started having a greater sense of purpose.  
Creating a musical “journey” for the Ecstatic Dance became a creative outlet.  Before then, I didn’t know I was a creative!
The 30+ hours it took to make a set went by in a blink.  
I was in the flow, where time stopped and nothing else existed.  
And the sense of achievement after coming through the creative process gave me hope.

In 2009, Ecstatic Dance stopped happening at Kalani.  Only then I realized I’d taken it for granted the whole time.
I stopped going to Ecstatic Dance for nearly 10 years.
My health declined. I gained weight. I began drinking to excess, focusing only on work.
Until a few years ago I had the opportunity to start a new Ecstatic Dance in Southern Oregon.

It started with just my partner and I.  
Week after week, we showed up.  Just us.
I practiced speaking the guidelines I’d learned from the years before at Ecstatic Dance.
Then, one by one over weeks and months, a new person would join us.
I shared the intentions I understood Ecstatic Dance was founded on.
I found my voice in sharing these intentions.
And eventually, a community formed with Ecstatic Dance in Williams.

Since then, my life has never been the same.  
There’s a kind of magic in building community around a central idea.
This idea being that we can find a sense of introspection, inclusivity, and interconnectedness… a way to integrate, process, and overcome our emotional wounds, possibly “healing” them ourselves through movement,
I can’t stop talking about how amazing this experience has been for me.
Since then, I’ve stopped drinking. 
I’ve started doing therapeutic treatments.  
I’ve been going to group workshops for self improvement through meditation and breathing.
My 40th, 3 years ago, seems like it was a rebirth.  
I’ve finally found a way to forgive myself…  A, way to forgive my parents… and everyone else.
Where once I was seething with anger, a facade to cover up the fear and sadness, today I’m able to face the world… vulnerable, honest, flawed, but willing to keep improving.

I look back at everything I’ve been through… and everything I’ve put others through.  
I’m immensely sorry.  
I wish I could start over with the sense of empathy and care I have now.
But, I also feel immensely grateful.
Today, I get to be alive.
And that means I can still do good.

LOVE IN THE JUNGLE - LIVE SEXY BASS SET @ SELVA, LAKE ATITLAN, GUATEMALA - 3.08.25

So deeply honoured and grateful to be invited to come back to Koh Phangan and DJ for one of the best Ecstatic Dance floors in the world! 🔥

I actually started DJing while I lived on Koh Phangan 6 years ago, but I had just started and wasn't yet good enough or well-known enough to DJ at the Pyramid. 😇

But I would come and dance at the Pyramid Dance every Sunday and dream of the day that I would be behind the decks! And today is the day! 🙌🏻

Huge shout-out to Tristan and the Pyramid team. Thank you for your trust and support. ❤️

And thank you to everyone who has continued to support me on this crazy journey of life! 🥰

Looking forward to sharing my magic with more epic dancefloors all around the world! 🔥

Love,
-Toltech- 👽✌️

The Yoga Barn Ecstatic Dance | Ubud, Bali | 1.06.2025 | ZANA PRANA

◈ The Remembering | A journey through bass, breath, and devotion.

This ecstatic set was woven as an offering, with my vocals layered on top — a dance for the unseen, for the muse of remembrance.

From deep, grounding rhythms to orchestral swells and ethereal drops, this mix moves through shadow and light — stirring the body, softening the heart, and lifting the spirit.

May it awaken what is ancient within you.

May it call you home to your own sacred pulse.
This is a dance of rememberance —
for the bliss, the beauty, and the becoming.

The Rememberïng | Boulder Ecstatic Dance | 6.22 | ZANA PRANA

This set was an initiation - into a new space, a new era, a new commUnity. To grow together in new ways - an invitation to dance & pray, laugh & cry, feel all the feels together, lift our hearts and work It all out on the dancefloor, like we do.

There was ALOT of intention put into this set: The past 5 years on Earth have been for so many of us the MOST challenging and on top of that, all that this Bay Area Ecstatic Dance community has been navigating...

This set marks a new beginning in so many ways with prayers for resolution, healing, blessing and rebirth. It is deeply alchemical - I put my headphones on and danced to it in my backyard to fully test the (recorded) journey myself.

I feel blessed and grateful to be here, deeply seen and felt by this extraordinary community. Thank you for having me. May we grow in beautiful new ways together. Mahalo✨

06 15 25 MOVEMENT Ecstatic Dance San Francisco

Wow! It was such a joy and honour to start off my birthday week by DJing for the legendary Sunday morning Ecstatic Dance at the Yoga Barn! 💃🏼

I love this dance so much. I've been dancing here myself most Sundays for the last 5 years, and it's always so much fun to get on the other side of the decks and share my magic with this epic community. 🔥

And we raised 6 million IDR for PKP Bali. An amazing local charity that supports Balinese people in need. ❤️

Thanks for all your love and support.

There is nothing quite like playing on a Sunday Morning for a dance church experience with my dance fam at Asheville Movement Collective. Especially when it is at the beautiful Warren Wilson College Pavilion!

Thank you for all the dedicated dancers who came and got down, and to all you digital listeners out there!

This set was inspired first by a poem I wrote (will share below!), and evolved into being guided by sacred sounds from around the world. It is my hopes it takes you to that sacred space within, where love is found <3

"Sacred space
Each day a bit more held
A bit more solid
A bit more subtle
A little brighter & lighter
Each day, returning 
Surrender feels safer, softer now 
Settled in skin
Steady in sight 
Straight in spine
Sober in mind
Centered in Self
~
The silence stopped being so loud 
The noise died down
Nothing but space
All the space in the world 
~
But the grief, it stuck around
A love with no where to go
Begging to be made 
By breath into prayer 
~
And so I pray 
Every day
Love’s devotee,
Beloved longing
Here at the altar of aching adoration
A broken heart is the prerequisite 
Tears are the offering 
The Goddess does love the way they glisten like diamonds 
Tickling the cheek 
Softening the skin 
She whispers, “surrender…
Break open that beautiful heart
I’ve got you”
~
I soak up the silence 
In stillness sensing the subtle sound of sweet memories made in love
You gave me space, so I made it sacred
~
In my sweet sacred space 
I meet my Beloved, 
Everyday, 
With a heart broken open
Offering tears at the altar, 
Of my undying Love
It was always you, Beloved
And You were always Here
~
I let go 
And all that was left 
was Love…
~
…And this time,
Love is enough."
❤️‍🔥

Ecstatic Dance @ Kalani (Feat. Invocation by Alicia Sunflower)

This is a recording of the music of the 'Program' section of the 2 hour journey we enjoyed at Ecstatic Dance in Williams, Oregon, on October 8, 2017.  Between the Warmup (Part 1), and the Program, we had an opening circle in which we connected with words about the guidelines which create the Ecstatic Dance container, and a beautiful Invocation song by a community member.

It's Fall season in southern Oregon. The tiny Town of Williams, which normally consists of very private rural farmers suddenly is awash with migrant farm workers. Young and old, they come from near and far, and they love to dance. 
It's been freezing every night for a week, and fortunately the air isn't thick with smoke from the nearby forest fires. 
It’s night time, as the venue is booked in the mornings of the 2nd Sundays.  It’s a special Ecstatic Dance, when we get to dance in the night time energy.
As the first couple songs play, community members arrive and greet each other with huge smiles and bigger hugs.  For some of us, it’s been a while since we’ve seen each other.  For others, only a week.  Still, we immediately start filling the room with LOVE.
Playing one song into another, choosing each in the moment, we co-created the journey.  Myself as the Musical Facilitator did the technical work, but I feel that the energy we brought together was the true guide.
The recordings are for us to revisit the moments we had at Ecstatic Dance, and for those who weren’t there to potentially tap into the energy we shared.
This was, at this point, the most fun I’ve had at Ecstatic Dance… ever.  Thank you to everyone who participated.

Never Give Up

Ecstatic Dance @ Williams Oregon (Never Give Up Part 2) - October 2017

This is a fully improvised set, and a live recording of Ecstatic Dance at Kalani Honua, on January 21, 2018.  
It was a rainy day in Puna.  I'd flown from Oregon several days before, and jumped right into digging for songs to play at Ecstatic Dance.  
A week before, the day after I'd arrived on the Island, Maura Star played for Ecstatic Dance at Kalani.  Her set was absolutely flawless.  It was amazing.  The flow, the peak, the vibes... it was all so perfect.  It made me anxious to think that I wouldn't be able to bring the energy up as high as she had done, for the 300+ dancers who would come to get down!

Up until the day of the event, I didn't know what I was going to play.  I wavered back and forth whether to play 'on the fly', or to have 'it all figured out'.  I had a few songs I knew I wanted to play, and I was so afraid I wasn't going to do well enough.  But, after a couple songs, I got into the groove.  I closed my eyes and danced until I felt the music in my soul.  Then, I let the spirit of the Community help me choose what to play next.  I'm SO glad I did!!

I really wish there were photos of Ecstatic Dance at Kalani.  I'm going to hold the memory of us all getting AS DOWN AS DOWN CAN GET for as long as I can!
After nearly 10 years since the last time playing music for Ecstatic Dance at Kalani Honua, I'm facilitating again.  It's been far too long.  Thank you to everyone who helped make it happen.  I LOVE you!

Ecstatic Dance

Ecstatic Dance @ Kalani Honua

This is a live recording of Ecstatic Dance at SoulPlay Festival, on June 10, 2018. 
It's a dream come true playing for Ecstatic Dance at SoulPlay Festival and it will remain in my mind and heart forever.  
It was a warm morning in Pinecrest, CA.  The attendees of SoulPlay Festival had been hard at work, diligently acting to improve themselves for the past several days.  
The Ecstatic Dance started out calmly, with several Souls stretching out and meditating to the music while others stood outside in the sun.  As the journey progressed, the dance floor filled and exploded in Ecstatic Movement.
I couldn't help but cry several times during the set as the songs resonated so strongly with me.  Many of the songs were released within the past few days and I'd never played before.  
Thank you to everyone who came and moved with me this Sunday morning at SoulPlay!

Ecstatic Dance @ SoulPlay

Sky Makai is one the facilitators of the original Ecstatic Dance on Hawai'i Island. 
A dancer at heart, Sky joined Ecstatic Dance at Kalani Honua in the early days when Ecstatic Dance was only a handful of people and unheard of -  except as a concept in Gabrielle Roth’s seminal book: Maps to Ecstasy 
Sky began providing opening music with Ecstatic Dance’s founder, Max Fathom.  Later, Sky took part in the original Ecstatic Dance Facilitator workshops, becoming one of Kalani Ecstatic Dance's core team of facilitators.   

Staying true to the roots of Ecstatic Dance, Sky's sets observe a distinguishable arc.  These musical journeys pay homage to Gabrielle Roth's influential practice of observing and moving through a “Wave” of musical selections.  The practice involves considering how waves are inherent in all of nature; our life cycles, our relationships, and in our most intimate moments.
Sky’s musical journeys are designed to reach intense and energetic ecstasy while also encouraging introspection and emotional release.
We love Sky’s passion and dedication to our Ritual Community Movement Journey, his dedication to personal growth, and his love of helping others.

Today, Sky is a steward and resident Facilitator of Ecstatic Dance at Kalani Honua, having previously been co-founder of Ecstatic Dance at Honoka’a as well as Ecstatic Dance in Williams, Oregon.

In an effort to preserve the history this worldwide phenomenon, Sky created on an unofficial Ecstatic Dance Facilitator Guide: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1MeU3X6Gz3BIXrEFEfFpmZJhrO0GsWDOL4hWMPdYT6IY/mobilebasic
