Happy Mother's Day! For this special Mother's Day edition we have one of our favorite local DJs (and mothers) Moonfire headlining!
Join the Puna dance 'ohana as we continue to celebrate our sacred, community dance ritual each and every Sunday! We are a farming community that comes together to connect in an inspirational, expansive, open, generative, and inclusive way. By joining together in dance we strengthen the bonds of our farming community and create a forum for community building and community announcements.
Ecstatic Dance is a free-form conscious dance space devoted to self-expression, community building & empowerment. Come to move your body, heart, and soul. There are no expectations on how to move. All ages and backgrounds are welcome.
This week's headliner -- MOONFIRE !!!
Dance is a journey. It's up to you to determine the destination. Music is the vehicle. An expression of infinite variation that can touch any point in time and space. And all the movers and shakers on the Big Island know to be prepared for new worlds to explore when Moonfire is at the helm of the ship. On warm currents of organic sounds, Moonfire transports dancers across a multi-textured soundscape layered with tribal beats and rhythmic world fusion.
Moonfire has been a force of nature on the local dance scene since the fabled "Full Moon Party Days," when she was a young dancer with a passion for world beats that propelled her from the dance floor to the decks. Honing her craft on turntables at renegade parties that magically appeared all over the island, her music was mixed with the beauty of the island surrounding it -- crashing waves, whistling winds, twinkling stars, chirping frogs, singing whales and whatever else Mother Nature brought to the show.

Authentic Relating Games 5/18
Ready to make some new connections? Gain more self awareness? Be the real authentic you? All while having FUN?
What is this!? What are Authentic Relating Game?
Authenticity is acting and speaking in alignment with our inner feelings, desires, and needs-our truth. Authentic Relating (AR) is the practice of bringing our truth into connection with others', so that we can weave a more rich human experience.
Authentic Relating Games are an easy and fun way to introduce AR into daily life. They can help us experience deeper connections, boost empathy, see the world through others' eyes, and understand ourselves better so that we can enjoy life more. The games are fun, highly interactive partner and group exercises that demonstrate and explore AR, and getting to know yourself better while at the same time learning to see and appreciate more about everyone you connect with. These games are NOT board games like 'Chutes & Ladders' and 'Checkers' (they're better ��).
Authentic also means that there is no cookie-cutter mold for how you "should" be or what relating "should look like". Everyone is a complete universe unto themselves, has a unique style, personality, and integrity that is perfectly them, and everyone is perfect and amazing as they are (including in their belief that they aren't.)
Join us for a FUN night of connection! Be the Authentic You!
Please carpool if possible.
Arrive a little early to park and get settled. Doors will close at 4:45.
Suggested donation $15.
Location . A sanctuary in lower Puna. Address will be given a couple days in advance to confirmed RSVPs. We expect this event to fill so if you are in, let us know by clicking "going."
