About your trip

What is the Ecstatic DJ Camp?

We like to think of it as a DJ-centric 'choose-your-own-adventure'! Somewhere between a retreat and an intermediate-level DJ Training. Ecstatic DJ Camp is where we will find the balance between playing and learning. At Ecstatic DJ Camp you will get to choose whether you want to learn to scratch, take a tutorial on music production or hang out by the pool waiting for your chance to play a set. And this is only the beginning!!


This camp is for you if you are:

• An Ecstatic DJ who wants to up-level your skills with Master classes led by veteran Ecstatic DJs

• A skilled DJ who wants to understand the Ecstatic/Conscious dance way

• A musician with the desire to collaborate with Ecstatic DJ’s and producers

• An Ecstatic Dance ceremony leader or conscious dance teacher who wants to enhance your classes and up your music game

• A dancing music fan who wants to geek out with friends and DANCE


(If you are just beginning your DJ journey we recommend you first attend our fundamental DJ Training the week before, then attend DJ camp.  In this training we can take you from complete beginner to competent soundscaper in 7 days! Check out more information here. )


“Bernice has the big spirit of combining earnestness and lightness, meaning and fun, space and time. She is a guardian, leader, and compatriot.” -Michael Schatzschneider | Westfalen, Germany


This is an incredible opportunity for learning, networking and having fun! During the 4 days, you will:

• Have the chance to attend Master classes with veteran Ecstatic Dance DJs and music producers

• Level up your musical skills in a supportive environment among mentors and peers

• Have the chance for one-on-one learning in your area of interest.

• Decide for yourself which classes you want to attend and how much time you spend relaxing.

• Connect and network with peers in the Ecstatic/Conscious Dance world 

• Connect with new friends at a gorgeous resort in the centre of a Nature Reserve

• Eat delicious wholesome meals prepared for you with love and care.

• DANCE!


"I thought I would just learn DJing and facilitating skills from Bernice but that turned out to be just a small part of what she has to offer. I felt so privileged to witness her powerful yet gentle energy, her wisdom which she shared so generously, and her ability to steer a large and playful group so smoothly" -Reema Asendar | Amman, Jordan
