ECSTATIC DANCE @ Kalani (The Birthplace) by Sky Makai - Ecstatic Dance Music published on 2019-10-01T01:34:58Z The birthplace of the modern Ecstatic Dance, the non-profit educational retreat center ‘Kalani Honua’, closed after the Big Island lava flow of April 2018. The loss of this community resource drastically affected the area. Kalani Honua was a social hub for many. After many long months of deliberation, the board of Kalani Honua relinquished control to a new group; Lily Cash, Allie Parkins, and Alex Boggio. Since then, they’ve been transforming Kalani, bringing life back to it. And, they’ve given it a new name, Kalanimua. “Imua” is the Hawaiian word for “strong”. It was again an honor to be the Musical Facilitator for Ecstatic Dance at Kalani. This morning we danced again in the Blue Moon Room, where Max Fathom once played to the original Ecstatic Dance group, when it was about 30 people and had outgrown the Rainbow Room. It was the first room I played Ecstatic Dance in, back in 2003. Everything came together perfectly this morning. The heatwave settled for a day and offered overcast and cooler weather. About 150 of the community came to move together, filling the space, creating a cohesive and unified dance. This set was improvised from beginning to end; each song was chosen in the moment, and mixed/transitioned live. Setlist below.
