“I wasn’t sure what to expect when

I first came to Manawa Ecstatic Dance.
Honestly, I almost didn’t go — I was nervous about dancing in front of strangers. But the moment I arrived, I felt completely at ease. No one was watching or judging, everyone was just moving in their own way. About halfway through, my mind quieted and my body began to move freely. I felt something shift — lighter, freer, more connected than I had in a long time.”
— A first-time Manawa dancer —
