The Center SF is proud to present the *first edition* of its new monthly mid-week, early evening Ecstatic Dance. Our intention is create more community spaces to safely explore and express ourselves through movement, connection, and dance.
The evening will include a Qi Gong inspired yoga flow with the incredible Chelsea Kirby, followed by a movement workshop and soul shaking DJ set by the one and only Gabriel Francisco. To top it off and ground your experience, Chelsea will close the evening with a guided meditation and sound healing.
Space is limited.

Chelsea Kirby views sound & movement as sacred expressions of a universal language; a language that unites and empowers people from all backgrounds. She brings the fluidity of sound & movement into her yoga offerings, blending vinyasa with intuitive movement and Qigong to free the spirit and deepen the connection to the subtle energy of the body.
As a singer-songwriter, sound-healer & sound-designer, Chelsea's love for both acoustic instrumentation & electronic music moved her to create her current project Arula; a rich interplay of her many influences.
She has studied with many celebrated teachers in the community such as; sound & breath-work under John DeRobertis (The Power of Conscious Singing,) Amber Field (Free your Voice,) and John Beaulieu (Biosonics/Sound). She received her 200hr YTT with Dana Damara in 2016 and has also taken various courses with teachers such as Janet Stone, Ana Forest, Roger Jahnke (Qi Cultivation & Mastery), Michelle Baker (Reiki, Swan River) and studied yoga & meditation in Kerala, India.
