The Pink Gypsy presents Ecstatic Dance DVDs by Gabrielle Roth

Ecstatic Dance 3 video Collection:  Gabrielle RothGABRIELLE ROTH - Over 35 years ago, a young teacher at the Esalen Institute began experimenting with an ancient body-based spiritual practice all but forgotten in our time: ecstatic dance. Today that teacher, Gabrielle Roth, is acclaimed worldwide for her pioneering work with The Wave, a sequence of improvised movements to five rhythm patterns that the New York Post has called a "map for the entire creative process."

On Ecstatic Dance - The Gabrielle Roth 3 DVD Collection, viewers join Gabrielle for three complete dance workouts, each with its own special benefits:


The Wave – From the pages of Shape and Elle to the Utne Reader and New York Magazine, Gabrielle Roth has been put in the spotlight for her revolutionary approach to dance as an ecstatic practice anyone can do. At packed workshops and retreats across North America and Europe, people who never thought they could dance are having a high-energy experience that frees the body and inspires the creative spirit.

The Wave, Gabrielle Roth VideoOn her first home workout video, Gabrielle Roth introduces us to “The Wave,” a moving meditation based on five universal rhythms that flow through our lives. Gabrielle teaches that each of these rhythms has the capacity to teach, catalyze, and even heal. As we join Gabrielle and her dancers (all non-professionals), we learn to improvise our own unique dance forms using every part of the body, from the inside out.

“There is a dance that only you know how to do,” Gabrielle says. The Wave makes it fun to experience the ecstasy of your body in motion – to some of the most irresistable high-energy dance music we’ve ever heard! VIDEO - 30 MIN


The Inner Wave – A moving meditative trance dance journey to the stillpoint within. For calming the mind and body, and creating peace in our lives.

The Inner Wave video, by Gabrielle Roth“The object of meditation,” teaches Gabrielle Roth, “is to still the mind – and the fastest way to do that is to move your body.” On The Inner Wave, the third video in Gabrielle Roth’s Ecstatic Dance video collection, we join this pioneer of ecstatic dance to investigate stillness, the mother of all rhythm, through a meditative trance dance journey.

Joined by dancers of all age groups and body types, Gabrielle leads a physical meditation that has been called a “living prayer.” As we surrender to the dance, exploring and improvising with every part of our bodies, we will experience how ecstatic dance can clear the mind and open the heart, and allow us to approach the stillpoint within.

“The more deeply we enter our bodies and breath,” Gabrielle says, “the more deeply we know ourselves.” Now every viewer can know their body and mind in a way they never have before, with The Inner Wave.

The Power Wave – Super high-velocity dance workout puts the psyche in motion and helps trigger spontaneous states of creative, intuitive power.

The Power Wave, Video by Gabrielle RothThe Power Wave is the next step in Gabrielle Roth’s breakthrough ecstatic dance series: a high-velocity, nonstop celebration of the human body in motion.

Pumping up the beat to maximum, Gabrielle guides us through five universal rhythms that flow through our lives and world. Viewers join dancers of all sizes, shapes, and age groups – whirling, sweating, transforming – for a super high-energy workout to explore and practice with, at home or in a dance space, alone or with friends.

How viewers move to The Power Wave is up to them: the steps to follow are simple. This dynamic practice allows us to experiment with breathing, body angles, edges, and patterns. Soon we feel how our energy merges with the pulse of life around us. We awaken our deepest creativity and open to our own intuitive way of moving.

At last, here is a home workout video for energizing our entire being, flexible enough to adapt to anyone’s schedule and body type: Gabrielle Roth’s The Power Wave. VIDEO - 30 MINUTES
