ECSTATIC DANCE
Dance your joys and sorrows, the buzz and the silence just don't hold back and dance it all.
And at the center of it maybe we grasp what we are or at least what we are not...
Then go back and touch in the stillness that holds it all and with awareness, as the master said touch everything.

Victor shares:
“I’ve been touched by the sacred space of Thai Massage and the Sangha for such a long time that I almost can’t trace back to when it all began.
It’s a thread that’s woven family, friendships, and meaning into my life.
Festivals and retreats gifted me with deep connection and a wider perspective of what life can be.
This time, I offer a space to celebrate and DANCE.
To bring your truth into movement, beyond words.
Dance your joy and your sorrow, your buzz and your silence. Don’t hold back—dance it all.
Maybe, through the movement, we touch who we are…
or at least what we are not.
So we can return to stillness — and touch again from there.
I am a Thai Massage Therapist and I love sharing Ecstatic Dance.
I can’t wait to join the TMS Festival crew —
to co-create a space of joy, celebration, and presence with this beautiful tribe.”
