In the organizer's words:

Hey you there

Ecstatic Dance is our great passion - not because it's just another form of party, but because what is created here is much better, more honest and genuine than just partying and having fun. It is deeply rooted in a holistic experience that can become truly ecstatic. What does that mean? Find out...

We are happy to welcome Tayphoon again. He is an experienced and very special DJ and space holder. His rooms vibrate with a naturalness and depth.

"Tayphoon is a turkish german ecstatic dance DJ born in Hamburg and living nomadically in his
van. He is a ceremony leader, facilitator and spaceholder for Conscious Events of all sorts and the co-founder of the "Middle Eastern Infusion" starting in Amsterdam.
Tayphoon's ecstatic dance journeys are inspired by his Turkish heritage and his
love for ethnic bass music from all around the world. The dancers are invited to flow with energetic waves which start in a meditative state and build up to an ecstatic outburst in which he invites the inner wild animal to be expressed and natural ecstasy to be experienced.
He guides the dancers through warm middle eastern melodies, bouncy ethno beats, powerful tribal rhythms and cheeky psy bass drops. His sets incorporate a wide range of genres which welcome the dancers to reconnect with their light and their shadow and all the abundant flavors of emotion."

About ROAM ROOM EVENTS:

We have been continuously organizing Ecstatic Dances and various events in Cologne with DJs from all over the world for over 2 years. We see dancing as a way of life and a mirror to grow and enjoy life. Conscious and free movement and 'a space to be as you are' is the order of the day here. Our events focus on a conscious movement that has the power to initiate transformation on a social and individual level. Because let's be honest - we need to start consciously cultivating change and new growth!

If you've never been to an Ecstatic Dance before - wonderful, welcome! Here are a few introductory words for you:

What is Ecstatic Dance?

- A clear concept
Ecstatic Dance exists all over the world and usually follows the same guidelines. It's about drug-free, cell phone-free dancing without shoes and without talking, so that you can concentrate fully on your own inner world. The DJ will guide all the dancers and it's good to get involved with the sounds that come, regardless of your personal taste in music. The music is usually cross-genre and leads the dancers through quieter and more dynamic phases. It's about feeling into your own body.

- Embodiment
Ecstatic dance is such a great combination of movement, fun, meditation, depth and broadening your horizons. A really good tool for developing into new dimensions with joy in your heart. We give the body control and see what happens.

-Free Journey
This is a kind of ceremonial dance journey in your own rhythm. Free dancing. Perhaps this requires courage at first. But letting go in this process and dancing freely is part of the journey of Ecstatic Dance. Come and try it out! You have nothing to lose, only to gain!

The VVK ends on 26.10. at 12:00. If the tickets are sold out, there will be no more tickets available at the box office. Better make sure you get one early!

Here is some interesting information about the ticket options:

Unfortunately, we have recently had to adjust our ticket prices to reflect rising costs. There are now only a very limited number of discounted tickets available. Please be careful with them. If you are currently in financial difficulties that make it NOT at all possible for you to buy a ticket, but you absolutely want to come, then write us an email.

Ecstatic Dance should be accessible to everyone!
