I've hardly missed a week, even throughout the pandemic, still putting on headphones and dancing on the beaches,\u201d Quayle explains. \u201cEcstatic dance is completely freeform dance\u2026Movement for the sake of joy and release.\"<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cIt's also a completely sober space. And usually there's a held container. Certain rules, like no talking in the space, using cell phones outside the space, no technology within the container,\u201d Val adds.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The ecstatic dance enthusiasts plan to help make Dance Temple a regular occurrence on Cortes. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cMy vision would be something like four or five people involved co-holding it and having it run regularly, but it might take a couple years\u2026 So for now, maybe just every couple months just to get the ball rolling,\u201d Quayle says.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Quayle and Lange are bringing Dance Temple to Cortes Island at Mansons Hall on Aug. 6. The event is scheduled from 730-930 p.m. Music will be by DJ N Joy, aka Naomi Jason, one of the founders who helped develop Dance Temple on Salt Spring Island and Victoria. Quayle will be offering a sound therapy session at the end of the evening by playing the didgeridoo. All are welcome. Admission is a sliding scale $12-$22.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">To connect with this blossoming dance community on Cortes, you may reach out to Connie at <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mooncatmagicals.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">mooncatmagicals.com<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Listen to this CKTZ News update below:<\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Connie Quayle and her partner, Val Lange are bringing Dance Temple to Cortes Island next week.
