What makes Beat Church Asheville different from other local Ecstatic Dance events?
The Music: Beat Church Asheville is curating a different musical offering, with the intention of sharing a West Coast-inspired, saucy bass music vibe.
The Vibe: It’s a cross between a club and Ecstatic Dance. In some ways it’s more like a club, but in others, more like Ecstatic Dance.
The Name: When I was considering what to call the event, my go-to was Ecstatic Dance because I was modeling after Ecstatic Dance Oakland. But I realized that the name means different things to different people, and I wanted something new and fresh, so the event could create its own brand.
The Guidelines: Our guidelines are simple and are meant to invoke freedom and safety in the space with utmost importance placed on respect for yourself, others and the space.
The Location: We dance at the beautiful and inspiring Center for Art & Spirit at St. George’s Episcopal Church in West Asheville. 1 School Road, Asheville NC
