🌞 Celebrate Midsummer with Ritual, Dance & Shapeshifting Magic
This is more than a dance night.
It’s a portal. A rite of passage. A remembering.
At the turning point of the year — the Summer Solstice — we gather to honor the light, our bodies, our wild joy, and the power of community.
In ancient times, midsummer was a sacred moment to shift shape, to celebrate abundance, and to realign with nature's rhythm.
And that’s exactly what we’re doing.
✨ Why Ritual?
Because rituals connect us.
Not just to spirit — but to each other.
They reawaken what’s ancient in us.
They give form to feelings we cannot speak, and open the door to deep transformation.
We believe that spiritual awakening is not a solo mission.
It is a shared journey.
A dance between alone-time and tribe-time.
Between stillness and expression.
That’s why we redesigned Wild Ecstatic Nights:
We felt something was missing — and we found it in RITUAL.
💛 Rituals that bring us back into our bodies
💛 Rituals that honor the transitions we go through
💛 Rituals that help us shape-shift into who we truly are
Let’s gather in this safe, soulful space to shed the old, call in the new, and celebrate this wild, wise tribe we are part of.

🔥 The Summer Solstice Ritual
“Midsummer Night – A Collective Body Spell”
Facilitated by Roosien Verlaan
“Midsummer. So much light it makes you dizzy.
In this celebration, we surrender to abundance.
Unlike winter, which demands focus and preservation, summer invites us to explore, express, transform — and shape-shift.
Just like in Shakespeare’s Midsummer Night’s Dream, light and love spiral into ecstatic chaos — where everyone becomes someone else.
Through ritual, we give this transformation a container: a body spell.
We work with air (imagination) and fire (transformation) to create a collective field of play, truth, and connection.
Can you meet the unknown — in the other, or within yourself?
Can you allow yourself to become someone new — just for tonight?
This is a ritual grounded in systemic wisdom and tantra.
This is shapeshifting as a way home.”
✨ About Roosien
Ritual artist. Systems thinker. Dream weaver.
Roosien creates transformational spaces where time expands, roles dissolve, and new possibilities arise. Her current theme: Shapeshifting — the art of becoming who you are meant to be.
“My mission is to help people build systems rooted in shared values and soulful play. I guide groups into the unknown — not to get lost, but to remember what truly matters.”
Expect a deeply held space, surprising play, and a gentle invitation to go beyond what you thought was possible.
