Ecstatic dance is a very Portland experience that happens almost every day of the week somewhere in town. This website lists them all. The largest is the Sunday Sacred Circle group in the Tiffany Center. Go out to shake your shimmy with people who are there to express fully. I assure you that you will not be the most awkward dancer there, and the raw freedom is truly inspiring. "Contact Improv" means that people will be doing very interactive dances, but you can always give a namaste to graciously bow out of an offer. Please note, that if the group has the word 'naked' in the title, that is a literal meaning.
