Ecstatically Queer 2025

Come dance in an intentionally safer and supportive container for LGBTQIA+ folks! Questioning and other non-conforming folks are also welcome. Deepen your connection with self, community, and the great mystery by immersing yourself in ecstatic dances and the soothing hot springs of Breitenbush! There will be an assortment of other sessions, such as Contact Improv, Partner Massage, Amoeba Dance, and Sound Healing Meditation. This retreat will occupy the whole Breitenbush property (no personal retreats during the same weekend). Whether you come alone or with companions, the ecstatic community is warm and welcoming—and upholds a culture of consent & attunement.

This retreat is for all Queer and Questioning folks who want to celebrate queerness with us in the context of an Ecstatic Dance retreat. Queer = any identity or orientation that doesn’t fit neatly into the binary boxes of gender, orientation, expression, or identity. Questioning: if you’re questioning your own categories, labels, identities, orientations, boxes, etc—or even just questioning the validity of the binaries and labels forced upon us by the cisheteropatriarchy.
