“The sole purpose of human existence is to kindle a light in the darkness of mere being.” _Carl Jung Dance is in my blood. My dance journey started with Sylvia Glasser’s Moving Into Dance Mophatong, and with time, this passion has led me into the world of conscious dance. Along the way I trained in Biodanza and have woven the depth of this powerful modality into what I now offer – practices grounded in psychological, spiritual and proven practices I offer a dynamic set of ecstatic practices that invite us to an embodied awakening. Through dance, entheogens, and sensitive touch we can explore the deepest layers of pleasure and desire, sparking a powerful and ecstatic connection to the joy of being alive. While the shadow is always present, my approach focuses on fostering pleasure, enjoyment, and the pursuit of life-affirming emotions. Too often we live in reaction to the events that shape our lives, rather than being the creators of the future we desire. By accessing deep awareness, we tap into the wonder and wisdom of our bodies. When we move beyond the surface of physical sensation, we immerse ourselves in the mystery of life - connecting to health, well-being, and vitality. We reach enlightenment and expanded states of being by embracing our humanity through the body and ecstatic experiences, lifting us out of what Tim Freke author of Soul Story calls “the numbness of being normal”. I have facilitated workshops and retreats in Brazil, Greece, Edinburgh Festival Fringe in Scotland, Mozambique and of course many in South Africa. Each modality - dance, entheogen journeys, and sensitive touch - are transformative on their own. But when integrated, the practices unlock a profound cosmic fusion and wholeness. I love to explore and continuously expand my own practice – for now these are my offerings: AQUA ECSTATICA Immerse yourself in a heated (37°C) indoor pool, like a cosmic womb, combining a threshold dose of psilocybin, inner journeying, and sensitive movement. In this sensual and profound space, connect deeply with yourself, others, and the essence of life. This is also offered one-on-one where dosage depends on the individual. AQUA TRANCE Is a fusion of aquatic bodywork, music, and movement in a heated pool, where water’s natural flow induces deep relaxation and connection. Feel the freedom and timelessness as you drift into a state of "oceanic" oneness. (Ideal as a warm-up for AQUA ECSTATICA.) “Hi Christos, the whole experience was just fantastic. I felt safe and as if it a bubble of love.” m~TRANCE Is a journey into the sub-conscious to access knowledge, wisdom and healing through mental clarity and insight – facilitated by entheogenic plants and dance. Using a threshold does of psilocybin it incorporates an inner journey connecting to self, followed by an integrative dance journey. “Thanks again Christos. You created such a safe space and container for a deep and beautiful experience. I feel very privileged and blessed” ecstatic CACAO

His music selection is spot on as well and is a powerful part of what he offers. I recommend him fully!
