Ancient Tools for Our Modern Lives

Shamanic Trance Dance is a blend of modern and ancient healing practices designed to awaken ecstacy in our bodies.

Join us for our May ceremony where we will:

  • Honor the sacred within and around ourselves

  • Circle to share our hearts and stories

  • Dance for 30 minutes to free and heal our bodies

  • Hold an Ecstatic Trance Posture to awaken ecstasy in our bodies with the rattle and drum

  • Connect to the unseen realms

  • Share our experience


What Are Trance Postures?

Shamanic or Ecstatic Trance Postures-(as they are officially called) were discovered by anthropologist and scholar Dr. Felicitas Goodman in the early 70’s.  She discovered that modern humans can open long forgotten doorways to the spirit world and the healing that accompanies this by holding a posture based on artifacts from our gathering-hunting ancestors. 

We hold these postures for 15 minutes while drum and rattle activate our bodies and brains, expanding our consciousness and allowing us to experience the invisible realities beyond this seen world.  

With these postures we have access to the ecstatic and healing states that come when we connect with that which is greater than ourselves.  

Dr. Goodman spoke of modern humans as being ecstasy deprived, looking to feel connected or high from sources outside ourselves.   These postures are a beautiful, easy and natural way to come back into balance inside ourselves.

Join our May ceremony and discover the benefits of Shamanic Trance Dance for yourself!


Meet Lizzi

Facilitated by Lizzi Juda- who has been a practitioner and facilitator of Ecstatic Trance Postures for over 25 years. She has found that she is more grounded on the earth and has an understanding of what our ancestors' nervous systems were like before the overwhelming environments of our modern societies.  She has also found that her intuition is quite activated and she is plugged into a bigger source of support and inspiration because of this powerful practice.

$25 - Space is limited so please reserve your spot via the link below.
