Spirals: A Journey Through the Cycles of Life
Join us for an evening of dynamic movement and deep connection as we explore the sacred geometry of the spiral—a symbol that reflects the endless journey of growth and self-discovery. From the spirals in the Milky Way to the patterns found in seashells and our very DNA, the spiral represents the continuous cycles of life, where each turn offers new insights and deeper understanding.
The evening will open with a special performance by Myles Optimystic, a St. Pete-based Hip Hop & Indie Pop artist whose music touches on themes of mindfulness, healing, and collective transformation. Myles will perform their evocative song, "Spirals," setting the tone for a night of introspection and celebration. With music that ranges from high-energy anthems to reflective melodies, Myles reminds us of our shared journey through life—one that is unified by sound, breath, and the conscious awareness that we are all interconnected.
Following Myles' performance, DJ JADI (Joel Jadus) will guide us through a high-energy dance journey, weaving together genres like melodic house, trap, future bass, and electronic. Each track is thoughtfully chosen to elevate your spirit and help you connect more deeply with yourself and the community around you. As we dance, we'll mirror the rhythms of the universe, moving in spirals that represent both personal growth and the unity of all life.
This isn't just a dance—it's an opportunity to reconnect with your inner self and the world around you. Whether you're revisiting lessons you've learned before or discovering new truths, this night will be a celebration of the infinite cycles of life, through movement, music, and shared experience.
Come and dance with us, as we honor the spiral and the endless journey it represents
