Bústaðu viðburðinn!—A BLINDFOLDED SHAMANIC TRANCE-DANCE JOURNEY
Close your eyes.
Follow the pulse.
Let the body lead.
EKSTASIS comes from the ancient Greek ékstasis — to stand outside oneself. A state of moving beyond the ordinary self. Beyond the known. Beyond the boundaries of who we think we are.
This FELD Experience is a journey into that threshold. EKSTASIS is a two-hour guided journey through breath, hypnotic rhythm, repetition and intuitive movement.
It is an invitation to move beneath the thinking mind and enter the deeper intelligence of the body—not by forcing anything to happen, but by listening, following and allowing.
There is no choreography.
Nothing to perform.
Nothing to prove.
Nothing you need to achieve.
The body already knows the way.

////. —
TRANCE DANCE IS AN EMBODIED PRACTICE THAT USES SUSTAINED RHYTHM, REPETITIVE MOVEMENT, BREATH AND REDUCED VISUAL STIMULATION TO SUPPORT DEEP ABSORPTION.
As the rhythm becomes an anchor, the judging mind may soften and movement becomes more instinctive. You may experience intensity, stillness, emotion, resistance, release or simple presence. There is no state to achieve—every journey is different.
////. —
EKSTASIS is for those who want to:
Move beyond self-consciousness
Explore embodied trance
Reconnect with instinct and intuition
Express what words cannot reach
Experience movement as ritual
Trust the body’s innate intelligence
You do not need to be a dancer—only willing to listen.
////
THE JOURNEY. —
Arrival
Orientation, boundaries and physical safety.
Grounding
Breath, sensation and subtle movement awaken the body.
Entering the blindfold
Breath becomes movement. Movement becomes repetition. Repetition becomes rhythm.
Building the trance
The music intensifies as guidance fades and embodied intelligence takes over.
Peak and surrender
Movement may become expansive, instinctive and raw—without pushing beyond your limits.
Descent and landing
The rhythm softens into stillness, rest and integration before you slowly remove the blindfold.

I AM.—
Estrella Ástriðúr (aka Astrid)
Estrella Ástriðúr is a transformational guide and facilitator devoted to exploring what makes us feel truly alive.
At the heart of her work lies a simple knowing: the body already knows.
It knows how to soften. How to express. How to release. How to connect. How to return to its natural rhythm.
Through movement, breath, sound, embodied awareness and the intelligence of the nervous system, Ástriðúr creates immersive spaces where people are invited to move beyond the thinking mind and reconnect with the deeper wisdom of the body.
Her approach is intuitive, integrative and deeply experiential. Rather than seeking to fix or become something else, the invitation is to listen — to the subtle impulses beneath the surface, to the energy that wants to move, and to the life force that is already present within us.
Her work explores the meeting place between embodiment and transformation, structure and surrender, the individual and the collective. Through movement, ritual, trance, sound and presence, she invites participants into experiences where familiar patterns can soften, control can loosen, and something more instinctive and authentic can emerge.
Estrella Ástriðúr believes that aliveness is not something we need to achieve.
It is something we remember.
Something we allow.
Something that becomes available when we dare to inhabit ourselves more fully.
Her spaces are an invitation to listen deeper, feel more, move beyond the known — and trust the innate intelligence that has been within you all along.
The body already knows the way.
