Renée Lacroix

Co-founder of Ecstatic Dance UK, Renée's journey on the spiritual path started with meditation and Buddhism before leading her to conscious dance. She first started her practice as a 5Rhythms dancer, and eventually found her ikigai (reason for being) as an Ecstatic Dance organiser, facilitator and DJ. Her vision is to make Ecstatic Dance more accessible and mainstream by hosting welcoming and inclusive events that appeal to people from all walks of life. She now lives in Lisbon and co-organises Ecstatic Dance Lisboa, one of Europe's oldest conscious dance community. She also hosts regular Ecstatic Dance retreats in Devon (England) and Tomar (Central Portugal).
