Release & Rise — A Journey into Regulation, Movement & Freedom
A 3-hour embodied journey to regulate your nervous system, release tension, reconnect with your body, and discover greater freedom and ease through movement and dance.
The Journey
First 40 minutes — Regulation, Body Awareness & Free Movement
We begin by slowing down, arriving in the body and creating a sense of grounding and presence.
Through gentle nervous-system regulation, breathwork and body awareness, we explore free movement through a fascia-informed perspective. Using simple fascial movements, spirals, Yin-inspired exploration and playful animal patterns, we begin to notice sensations, soften tension and discover new possibilities for movement — without forcing or following choreography.
You’ll be introduced to simple tools that can support regulation, resilience, energy and emotional balance, while developing a deeper awareness of how your body feels and moves.
1 hour 40 minutes — Ecstatic Dance Wave
From this grounded place, we gather in a circle and begin with a short grounding meditation before moving into the Ecstatic Dance Wave.
The music takes us on a carefully curated journey — from grounding and release into expansion, vitality and joy, before gradually returning towards calm and stillness.
There are no steps to follow and no right or wrong way to move. This is an invitation to listen to your body, explore free movement and express yourself authentically.
Last 15 minutes — Relaxation & Integration
We close with a soothing 15-minute guided full-body relaxation, giving your nervous system and body time to settle and integrate the experience.
Afterwards, there is space to stay, relax, have a chat and connect with others — or simply enjoy some quiet time for yourself.

Hi! I’m Téia
I’m an Ecstatic Dance DJ, embodiment dancer and facilitator, also co-creator of Ecstatic Dance Cambridge.
I craft dance floors where wildness is welcome, silence speaks, and every beat is a call home to yourself.
Each set I play is a story — unpredictable, alive, pulsing with rhythm and soul.
You might hear tribal drums tangled with opera. Techno melting into tenderness. Soulful house, wild rock, earthy basslines, and delicate classical threads.
No borders. Just waves of sound guiding bodies into truth
My offerings — especially those related to the Release and Rise workshops — are rooted in fascia-aware movement, an intuitive, somatic journey that invites deep release, hydration of the tissues, and emotional integration through dance. It’s a space where tension dissolves, breath returns, and the body reclaims its fluid intelligence..

What Dancers Say:
‘Thank you for a fantastic evening. The information on fascia and how to release tensions within it was very useful. There was a lot of information to take in and it would have been good have had more time to take it and ask questions. However, having said that, I found myself applying what I had learnt to my dance usefully. The break with face painting was fun and gave us a chance to connect. The dance section was amazing. It was great to have the meditations before and after to focus. I did find it hard to hear all of it...perhaps a better microphone? However, WOW! The room was beautifully set up and the music was great ! I felt thoroughly looked after from beginning to end. What a treat- thank you so much, Teia!!’ -
S.C. - 18/10/25 - Release and Rise - Cambridge
‘This workshop was such a beautiful journey — a truly safe space to feel, release, and connect. Teia held the space with so much care and presence, guiding us through the journey so gracefully. I loved learning about fascia and how we can release tension through movement — it brought a whole new level of awareness to how I move and feel in my body. I danced so freely that I was completely aching the next day — in the best possible way! It was an amazing, heart-opening experience that I would absolutely recommend to anyone curious about movement, embodiment, and healing through dance’ … .

“The guests at my party loved the set that Teia dj'ed. It was original and fun and was a great mixture of flowing, chilled tracks and higher energy, heart-pumping, feet pounding, rhythmic beats. Teia brings her beautiful energy to everything that she facilitates. ‘

‘I really enjoyed this workshop, it has been an amazing experience of interactive learning, calming tuning in and magical music moments with liberating effects. Teia and team have managed to create a thoughtful, engaging environment for everyone. I really appreciated the little extra touches, like the face painting and tea and snacks, which made our evening a very special one. Well done!’ …
Ilda Cipriano - 18/10/25 Release and Rise - Cambridge
‘Téia shines as a facilitator, particularly in creating a welcoming and positive atmosphere, leading deeply relaxing and connecting breathwork, soundbathing, and meditation sessions that release tension. Participants appreciate the warmth and sense of community cultivated at the events, and Téia's storytelling during grounding exercises, like the "re-born into music" narrative, resonates strongly. While collaborating with other DJs, Téia's distinct contribution often centers around guiding participants into a state of relaxation and mindfulness, appreciated by many as a highlight of the experience.’
Dandelion Events summary - April/2025
‘I was recently exposed to Teia's dj'ing. Teia was constantly matching and accentuating the group's energy with flowing chilled tracks to amassing high energy beats to almost meditative melodic tunes; I was dancing for 2+ hours non-stop, and so were my friends. Thank you, Teia, for the special night!’
Stelios Voutsaras 27/03/2024
‘‘Téia was a superb DJ at my recent birthday party. All of the 60 guests agreed that her music choice was exquisite. With great intuition and skill, she created a beautiful ambience for a blooming, fabulous event. I highly recommend her!’
