Tea ceremony
The art of arriving
Each morning begins in silence, gathered around tea. This is not a performance or a workshop — it is simply an invitation to land. To leave behind wherever you came from and be, fully, here. Rooted in the tradition of ancient Chinese gongfu tea, the ceremony is guided by our tea master Sergei of DoJo. The slow ritual of pouring, receiving, and drinking together dissolves the noise of the day before the day has even begun. By the time the first note is played, you are already present. Tea does not need you to believe in anything. It only asks you to slow down.
Contact Improvisation
The conversation without words
Contact Improvisation is a movement practice built on a single principle: the shared point of touch between two bodies, and the conversation that arises from it. There are no choreographed steps. No performance. No right or wrong. Just listening — through your hands, your weight, your breath — to what wants to happen next. Each morning, Sofia and Kristina of DoJo lead a Contact Lab workshop: a structured exploration of technique, trust, and awareness designed to give you genuine freedom in the open jam that follows. Whether you are new to contact or a seasoned practitioner, the Lab is your orientation — and the Jam is your playground. "Through this practice, I engage in a very truthful dialogue with myself, my partners, and the space." — Kristina, Contact DoJo facilitator Contact Lab — guided workshop, 9am each morning Contact Jam — open and self-led, from 11am No dance experience required. Comfortable clothes recommended.
Ecstatic Dance
The body knows the way home
As the sun sets over the Ubud jungle and the concerts draw to a close, the floor opens. Ecstatic Dance is a free-form movement journey — no partner required, no steps to follow, no alcohol, no talking on the dance floor. Just you, the music, and whatever your body needs to express tonight. Our resident DJs, including SavaBorsa, weave a carefully crafted sonic arc across each evening — beginning slowly, building into full release, then descending into stillness. The dance floor becomes a collective ritual space, each person sovereign in their own movement and yet undeniably part of something shared. The evening closes with a live sound healing journey — a gentle dissolution into rest before the night calls you home. Ecstatic Dance journeys begin at 8:30pm each evening. Sober space. Bare or soft-soled feet. All bodies, all levels, all welcome.
Schedule
A note on the full arc of the day
Morning — Tea & Contact. Afternoon — Makers & Music. Evening — Dance & Sound.
Each day at the festival is designed as a complete journey — from the quiet of tea at dawn to the full-body release of ecstatic dance at night. You are welcome to move through all of it, or simply follow what calls to you. There is no wrong way to be here.

During his time in Bali, he co-organized the inaugural Bali Handpan Festival with friend Marlia Ceour, aiming to promote the handpan’s unique vibrations and forge connections among local artisans and fellow enthusiasts.
