    Time details Dance lesson at 7:00

    This ride is all about shaking off self consciousness and just letting one’s body move…. Erratically….sporadically with no attempt at being on the beat and looking cool or sexy…. We may have an actual real prize for the worst dancer this time around… What are we talking about? Dance ugly and drool is a concept from ecstatic dance about embracing the healing and joy of dancing while shedding the constraints and sources of shame that stop people dancing…. There will be a brief dance intro at the start and then we ride. The nature of this ride is often spontaneous as we hunt down block party’s and happy pedestrians who we can encourage to join in. Personally I need this (Moorland). I love dancing but for about 2 years I’ve hardly done it as I try and navigate some personal difficulties and the daunting prospect of enjoying life has loomed to distant and unobtainable…but F that, let’s dance. As with all our rides we practice consent and non-violence. Banned riders on other rides are banned here too.
