DJ Neerav is the creator and founding father of Dance Jam. Dance Jam is a process that allows participants to explore movement with others and self through the language of presence and dance.

Dance Jam is acknowledged to be the precursor to the wonderful Flow events that happen regularly in the Montreal region (produced by flow guru, Solomon Krueger) and beyond. Since the beginning, DJ Neerav’s been one of the resident DJs at both the Flow Montreal, as well as a co-organizer and DJ of the Flow Val David (along with Marie-Eve Collette and DJ Eoka) which features live music as well as DJs.

A typical Ecstatic Dance event such as Dance Jam or Flow starts with an opening ritual particular to the theme of the night. Often, it’s in the form of an opening circle with participants holding hands, allowing them to tune in, ground in their presence and symbolically connect to everyone present, followed by an Om.

Following this, the theme of the class is stated, setting an intention and creating a safe space for all to share and enjoy, followed by some ice-breaking fun exercises to activate the body and awareness.

Throughout the jam, guided exercises can be strategically offered, followed by long periods free form exploration and dance, allowing participants to slowly return to a sense of belonging to a tribe.

At all times, people are encouraged to be authentic with their needs and respect where they are, regardless of the suggested exercises. Everyone leaves feeling whole, connected, refreshed and rejuvenated, ready to embrace life!
