What if the dancefloor were your most honest, living prayer?
In this episode, I’m joined by Tasha Blank, celebrated international DJ, somatic practitioner, teacher, and founder of The Get Down, The Drop, BODY LANGUAGE, and global leadership academy Powerhouse DJ School (PhDJ).
A student of somatic healing, shadow work, story, and ceremony, Tasha’s nervous system-based approach to transformation through movement is a wild invitation into your most powerful expression.
She’s known for liberating hips in New York City’s most legendary clubs, the world’s wildest festivals, and museums, churches, helipads, boats, roving desert ships, forests, and mountaintops everywhere.
She kicks off each set with a moment of silence and invocation. "Even for folks who've never seen a giant club get totally quiet and take a pause, it's an important part of the experience. When a crowd trusts each other enough to be still together for a few minutes, you can take them anywhere."
This conversation is a portal for space holders, facilitators, artists, DJs, and dancers who want to lead and move from your depths, liberate your body, or dance as a living expression of your soul.
💥 Inside the episode, we explore:
• The alchemical power of the dancefloor as a place to drop the mask and come home to your truth
• DJing as a shamanic ritual of moving the energy of a room
• Why the depth you’ve met within yourself directly impacts how deep others can go in your presence as a facilitator
• How your willingness to meet your shadows makes you a more powerful, embodied leader
• The unseen mechanics of a truly transformational dancefloor
• How to be a facilitator, space holder, or DJ who creates wild, primal, cathartic, healing, and emotionally attuned spaces with permission to GO THERE... and not just hype
• What it actually means to "not give a f*ck" on the dancefloor, and why it’s a disciplined practice
• The hidden parts of ourselves that we hide or exile: not just grief and shame, but also joy, silliness, sexiness, and playfulness
• Tasha’s favorite advice from Krishna Das that changed her relationship to performing & space holding forever
• How to transmute shame into ecstasy
🪩 This one’s for the souls wanting to reclaim their bigness, their bodies, and their birthright to be fully seen and expressed.
