Return to Her: Full Moon Dance & Cacao Ceremony

The programme is unusually clear: a grounded arrival, optional cacao, guided movement, silent-disco dance and a quiet closing circle, all held outdoors at sunset.

Gather by the ocean for a women’s full-moon circle led by Kimberly DeLand. The evening begins with optional ceremonial cacao and meditation, then opens into gentle somatic movement. This means moving with attention to bodily sensations, before a headphone dance journey on the sand.

After check-in, the group shares meditation and an optional cacao ritual, followed by gentle movement and a silent-disco set through wireless headphones. A full-moon release ritual, closing meditation and women’s circle complete the gathering. There is no choreography and no prescribed way to move.

This women-only gathering is for ages 18 and over. Bring comfortable clothes, warm layers, a blanket or wrap and water. Headphones and cacao are provided, and cacao is optional. The meeting point is Lifeguard Tower 26 on Santa Monica Beach. Paid parking is noted. Tickets are USD 28.52 and non-refundable.
