An emotional wellness community for women, centred around guided ecstatic dance, mindset and connection.
"So many of us are carrying emotional weight that we were never meant to hold. Dance gives us a way to release it - without explanation, without judgement, and without having to be anything other than ourselves.”
- Sabrina Cheema, Founder & Facilitator
What is ecstatic dance?
Ecstatic dance is a holistic wellness practice that uses free-form movement to support physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing. Without choreography or judgement, it allows the body to do what it’s naturally designed to do: move emotion, complete stress cycles, and regulate the nervous system.
ā
Ecstatic dance:
-
Supports the release of stored emotion and stress
-
Builds emotional resilience through embodied practice
-
āEncourages reconnection with the body and internal cues
-
Creates a safe space to feel and express freely, without explanation or analysisā
-
Offers an opportunity to be present and move together in community
-
Engages muscles, strengthens the heart, and eases physical tension
ā
āāNo routine. No mirrors. No right or wrong way to move. And no expectation to look a certain way. It’s not about dancing well. It’s about feeling - safely, freely, and without judgement.
Who are The Raver Girlies?
The Raver Girlies is more than dance alone. It’s a community where women are seen, heard, and accepted fully as themselves. It's for the parts of us we’ve had to hide, suppress, or shrink to fit society’s expectations - the pressure to be perfect, palatable, and productive. The unspoken rules that told us we weren't enough unless we performed, achieved, or conformed.
ā
Here, we make space for you to process all of that. You can release, reflect, and reconnect with yourself, and with women who understand. It’s why we share mindset reflections online, create guided dance spaces, and bring women together: to undo the pressure passed down through generations, to unlearn comparison and competition, and to nurture freedom, acceptance, and embodied presence.
ā
This is a community where emotion isn’t something to hide or manage - it’s something to move through, to feel, and to share safely with others who get it. It's a space to be free.
What to expect:
Our Rave + Release sessions give you an hour each week to step out of autopilot, reconnect with yourself, and move through what's been held in your body. A time to rave, release and regulate, together with women who get it.
ā
You can expect:
-
A women-only, judgement-free space
-
Guided facilitation throughout the session
-
Eyes closed, moving to the rhythm in your body, at your own pace
-
Music designed to support emotional release, regulation and embodied connection
-
Freedom to move, rest, cry, laugh, or be still
-
Supportive, like-minded women who understand and hold space for you
-
No boys, no booze, no routines, no pressure to perform
ā
Every session is designed to help you reconnect with your body, process emotion, and leave feeling lighter, freer, and more present.
