WHAT IS ECSTATIC DANCE?
Is a dance revolution 🙂
For many people, being seen is a fear and is common to dance under some sort of influences (Smoking, Drinking, Drugs) to feel more comfortable to dance.
Ecstatic dance is a safe space for you to feel free to move your body as you wish without the fear of being judged or watched by anyone else. You can really allow the music to take over and feel fully free to express yourself. Is like getting high on your own supply.
Senses is one of the Sri Lankan most visited place for ecstatic dance welcoming thousands of people every season from all over the world. We pride ourselves for the care we put in our dances always providing a safe space with world class djs and facilitators.
FOOD

Senses is located in the Midigama Fruit Farm, an organic fruit and vegetable farm. 80% of what we serve comes straight from our land ( Rice and onions from the neighbours). A true farm to table experience .
We strictly offer only vegetarian and vegan food. No animal is being harmed at the Fruit Farm.
Every day of the retreat there will be a different buffet style meal.
