About the event
Ecstatic Dance – Athens
Saturday 14th of September
8-10 PM
At the Inner Hive Yoga Studio AthensÂ
Step into a world where rhythm moves your soul, and dance becomes your language. This is a space for freedom, expression, and connection.Â
There are no steps to follow, no right or wrong — just your body, the beat, and the flow. With guidance from two experienced dance movement psychotherapists, you’ll be gently encouraged to explore your inner world and express yourself freely through movement.
We will explore different concepts and patterns to enable us to go beyond our learned movement vocabulary and habits, discovering a deeper embodied sense of self and freedom.
Come as you are, and let the music take you on a journey of self-discovery and joy.Â
Whether you’re a seasoned dancer or stepping onto the floor for the first time, no previous experience needed - everybody is welcomed!
Limited spots available !Â
We look forward to move with you!

Eftychia Nikolopoulou
Dance Movement Psychotherapist, Psychologist
Eftychia is a licenced psychologist and dance movement psychotherapist coming from Greece. She has over a decade of experience facilitating therapeutic groups and individual psychotherapy sessions for both adults and children in various community and psychiatric settings of the UK and Greece.
She is currently based in Athens working psychotherapeutically with people of all ages and walks of life as well as with a diverse range of emotional and mental needs.
In her work, she encourages playfulness and creative exploration inviting this way the authentic parts of the self to become alive, to be seen and heard while respecting the natural pace of the therapeutic process. She is a strong believer that working with the body and movement, we can gain access to deeper parts of ourselves that might be otherwise difficult to reach verbally. Thus, the body acts as a powerful tool of self-awareness and personal growth.
