In addition to being a lead DJ and organizer of the “Ecstaturday” Ecstatic Dance in San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park\, she is also a resident DJ in partnership with The Omni Movement\, a progressive partner dance studio located in Oakland. You’ll most commonly find her playing for Fusion Dance\, Brazilian Zouk\, or West Coast Swing around the Bay Area\, though she also holds passion for her unique take on club-style EDM. As a highly multidisciplinary DJ and music producer\, she brings lessons and influences from each of the music scenes she’s involved with into all of the others\, giving her a unique perspective that allows her to hybridize the elements that work from the different scenes and let them inform each other. \nQuintessence is a master of the intentional dance journey. She begins with tempos and rhythms designed to warm the body up while the melodic content creates emotional depth and intrigue that set the stage for what’s to come. Each stage successively builds on what we’ve experienced in the last\, taking us somewhere new that still feels part of the same story. The crescendos and climaxes interplay with periods of moderate rest and reflection to create a series of waves through various energies and moods. Finally\, we come to the sentimental landing and closing stages where we can integrate what we’ve experienced as the journey nears its end\, perhaps indulging in one final burst of joy or artistic expression before sending us off to what’s next. \nAs a dancer herself\, whose life has been transformed by the practice\, Quintessence always plays for the party she wants to be at. Her work often defies genre\, weaving through a great many of them throughout the journey in delightfully surprising ways. As she’s a multidisciplinarian with extremely broad taste\, you’ll never get the same experience with DJ Quintessence twice. She’ll make you move\, make you melt\, take you to places beyond words\, and leave you wanting more.DJ Quintessence can be found on Instagram\, SoundCloud\, Spotify\, and all other major music platforms. \n \n \nKIRIN POWER // Movement Facilitator\nKirin Power is a Bay Area based student and teacher of yoga and meditation\, and a lover of dance. \nAlchemizing yogic technologies— breath\, movement\, mantra\, & meditation\, with a thoughtful curation of music– Kirin’s inspired\, creative\, and informed offerings invite you to awaken to the wonder and Awe of being alive and embodied! \nEach flow is designed to activate your mind and body connection\, while improving your body’s flexibility and resiliency\, and of course\, empower you to express your sacred truth through movement on the dance floor. \nKirin hopes that your time together will remind you of the medicine that is gratitude\, and leave you feeling held in self love\, in savor of breath\, and at ease in heart.✨ \n \n \nA Consensual Environment \n*** As we come together in sacred movement practice\, let us remember to embody the values of consent and mindfulness.

Her love affair with dance began on the Big Island of Hawai‘i\, at Kalani — the birthplace of ecstatic dance — where for 3 years living on island she experienced firsthand how the power of dance in community can restore the human spirit. In 2024\, she stepped behind the decks to facilitate that same sense of aliveness for others. Her sets blend earthy globally inspired rhythms\, modern groove-driven electronica\, the occasional old school throw back\, and booty-shakin praise music. Both ancient and fresh\, Arielle’s sets move through downtempo soul\, deep bass\, and ecstatic uplift\, inviting dancers into embodied joy and remembrance of who they truly are. She brings a shamanic quality into her sets\, both through song choice and through her live vocals woven into the music. As a long-time facilitator of transformational spaces\, she is inspired to curate music journeys that support people to embody\, integrate\, and alchemize the human experience. Every transition is intentional\, every beat a prayer\, every track an invitation into the full range of our humanity and divinity. As a DJ\, Arielle’s core intention is to uplift the frequency of the planet through dance. \n \n \nSHANNON SAHAJA // Contact Improv Class\nShannon Sahaja is an embodiment alchemist who feels most at home in the woods\, on a dance floor\, in warm water or engaged in silly shenanigans. She holds a BFA in Dance from S.U.N.Y Purchase\, and has 2 decades of experience as a movement facilitator. She is well known for her loving approach to yoga that was developed while living and teaching at Harbin Hot Springs and through her mentorship with Angela Farmer. \nShannon enjoyed being the manager and sacred space holder for Ecstatic Dance Oakland from 2017-2024. She has studied extensively with many of the early pioneers of Contact Improvisation and loves articulating the mechanics of weight sharing for those unfamiliar with the form. She brings delight to the space with her unique ability to create safety while spicing things up with humor and spontaneity. Shannon has a presence that guides those in her field to come home to their essential self through play and spontaneity as well as attunement and depth. \nwww.shannonsahaja.com \n \n \nA Consensual Environment \n*** As we come together in sacred movement practice\, let us remember to embody the values of consent and mindfulness.

Rooted in contemporary dance and Brazilian social dances\, her path weaves through somatic education\, contact improvisation\, bodywork\, yoga\, gyrokinesis\, and transpersonal psychology. Brigitte’s passion is in integrating these worlds—guiding people into deeper connection with themselves through embodied movement and creative expression. \nAs part of her ongoing research\, she developed Liquid Leading—a practice that transcends traditional gender roles and invites each dancer to speak their truth through movement. It transforms dance into a co-creative language where stories can be exchanged\, not just performed. \n“To me\, dance is more than art or fitness—it’s a gateway. A tool for awareness\, expression\, healing\, and transformation. I hold space for play\, experimentation\, and deep listening—so you can return to your body\, your power\, and the ever-evolving dance of your life.” \nLet’s move together—and discover what’s possible when you remember the wisdom already living within you! \n \nKING KAIROS // Music Facilitator\nAfter nine years of training and performing as an opera singer\, King Kairos decided to carry over the remains of a traditional music background into a more futuristic\, innovative approach to art\, sound\, and embodiment. Now\, through experimentation and play\, they continue to expand their own identity through an ever-evolving range of styles. \nKing Kairos has shown a natural ability to relate to the collective\, with pure emotion and raw creativity\, King’s music invites listeners to dive deep within themselves and summon their own fullest range of expression. Their mystical\, yet relatable approach to artistry is entrancing. They blend the psychedelic with the surreal\, balance the sophisticated with the playful\, and merge light with dark… all in one curious adventure. As they continue to perform and teach\, King Kairos hopes to empower people of all walks of life to share themselves more authentically. \nhttps://on.soundcloud.com/UJpYYxRZHwcdyZtVNe \n \nA Consensual Environment \n*** As we come together in sacred movement practice\, let us remember to embody the values of consent and mindfulness.

In addition to being a lead DJ and organizer of the “Ecstaturday” Ecstatic Dance in San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park\, she is also a resident DJ in partnership with The Omni Movement\, a progressive partner dance studio located in Oakland. You’ll most commonly find her playing for Fusion Dance\, Brazilian Zouk\, or West Coast Swing around the Bay Area\, though she also holds passion for her unique take on club-style EDM. As a highly multidisciplinary DJ and music producer\, she brings lessons and influences from each of the music scenes she’s involved with into all of the others\, giving her a unique perspective that allows her to hybridize the elements that work from the different scenes and let them inform each other.Quintessence is a master of the intentional dance journey. She begins with tempos and rhythms designed to warm the body up while the melodic content creates emotional depth and intrigue that set the stage for what’s to come. Each stage successively builds on what we’ve experienced in the last\, taking us somewhere new that still feels part of the same story. The crescendos and climaxes interplay with periods of moderate rest and reflection to create a series of waves through various energies and moods. Finally\, we come to the sentimental landing and closing stages where we can integrate what we’ve experienced as the journey nears its end\, perhaps indulging in one final burst of joy or artistic expression before sending us off to what’s next.As a dancer herself whose life has been transformed by the practice\, Quintessence always plays for the party she wants to be at. Her work often defies genre\, weaving through a great many of them throughout the journey in delightfully surprising ways. As she’s a multidisciplinarian with extremely broad taste\, you’ll never get the same experience with DJ Quintessence twice. She’ll make you move\, make you melt\, take you to places beyond words\, and leave you wanting more.DJ Quintessence can be found on Instagram\, SoundCloud\, Spotify\, and all other major music platforms. \n \nSHANNON SAHAJA // Contact Improv Class\nShannon Sahaja is an embodiment alchemist who feels most at home in the woods\, on a dance floor\, in warm water or engaged in silly shenanigans. She holds a BFA in Dance from S.U.N.Y Purchase\, and has 2 decades of experience as a movement facilitator. She is well known for her loving approach to yoga that was developed while living and teaching at Harbin Hot Springs and through her mentorship with Angela Farmer. \nShannon enjoyed being the manager and sacred space holder for Ecstatic Dance Oakland from 2017-2024. She has studied extensively with many of the early pioneers of Contact Improvisation and loves articulating the mechanics of weight sharing for those unfamiliar with the form. She brings delight to the space with her unique ability to create safety while spicing things up with humor and spontaneity. Shannon has a presence that guides those in her field to come home to their essential self through play and spontaneity as well as attunement and depth. \nwww.shannonsahaja.com \n \nA Consensual Environment \n*** As we come together in sacred movement practice\, let us remember to embody the values of consent and mindfulness.
