Silent Beats, Wild Moves: Ecstatic Dance Takes Over Venice Beach

VENICE BEACH, CA – On a bright and sunny Sunday, February 16, 2025, the sands of Venice Beach became a silent but rhythmic dance floor as participants moved freely to music transmitted through wireless headphones. Hosted by Ecstatic Dance LA, the event combined movement, mindfulness, and community connection in a substance-free, all-ages environment.

Atasiea, co-founder of Ecstatic Dance LA, emphasized the group’s mission of bringing this unique practice to the greater Los Angeles and global community. “We dance on Sundays, and today, we’re also out here doing a beach cleanup,” he said. “We love creating a family-friendly, drug-and-alcohol-free space for health and well-being.”

Ecstatic Dance is an international movement that encourages self-expression through freeform dance, immersive sound journeys, and deep community connection. Participants follow simple guidelines: no talking, no phones, no intoxicants, and full presence in the moment.

With music curated by world-class DJs, the gathering provides a space for attendees of all backgrounds to move without judgment, transcend personal and cultural barriers, and embrace a sense of freedom and belonging.

For those interested in joining, Ecstatic Dance LA hosts regular events every Sunday and invites the community to follow their journey on social media @EcstaticDanceLA.
