Invitation:

This will be a dance to reset. This will be a dance to integrate. This will be a dance to process.
What do you find yourself needing during these strange times?
Do you need gentleness embodied?
Do you require a quick and ferocious downbeat to shake out what ails you?
Whatever it is you most identify with in a space of embodiment, dance, and movement – It is, of course, welcomed here, and hopefully the music provided will assist you in finding those spaces. I invite you to give yourself EXACTLY what YOU need during this wave. I hope to meet some of you in the middle and perhaps we can dance our way out together.

Scott Houston delivers his sound as ritual for enthusiasts of the deep and sacred. His DJ sets serve as portals into shamanic realms; Seamlessly blending hypnotic rhythms & soundscapes that transform dark, instrumental harmonies into light. Through these vibrational experiences with Scott Houston, we receive an opportunity to transcend culture, emotion, time, and space as a means for accessing our fullest capacity as embodied beings by becoming the dance itself.

In over a decade of utilizing dance as a healing modality, Scott Houston has come to believe in the inherent wisdom of the body and the power of music to move it. As an accredited 5Rhythms Teacher and seasoned host of Ecstatic Dance – Scott facilitates dances, classes, and workshops all over the world. His offerings are an open path to healing through a communion with the embodied self. As an Atlanta-based, turntablist and deep-music selector – Scott has had the privilege of opening for Techno giants such as Paco Osuna, Tara Brooks, and Saeed Younan. Scott is also a classically-trained musician of 20 years, performance artist, shamanic practitioner, resident DJ for Ecstatic Dance Atlanta & Motion Collective, as well as a workshop producer with 5Rhythms Atlanta.
