✨Jimmy Greenwood is the founder of Black Cat Cacao, a craft rooted in years of exploration with ritual, creativity, and ancestral food traditions. His journey led him deep into Ecuador’s ancient cacao heartlands, where he connected with forest custodians and learnt to work with cacao as a gentle, heart-opening medicine. Each Black Cat Cacao trinity blend carries a trace of that sacred harvest 🤎pure, unsweetened, and crafted to warm the body, soften the heart, and awaken the senses.

🌑❄️🔥 For our anniversary dance, Jimmy offers cacao as a companion for renewal, helping us move into ecstatic dance with openness, clarity, creative expression and grounded presence✨

DJ NavaSkye (Abi), instigator of Ecstatic Dance Bath, is a DJ–facilitator known for her deeply intuitive, genre-blending journeys. Weaving world and tribal rhythms with funk, soul, jazz, hip hop and drum & bass, her sets move like a wave - from gentle arrival into powerful, embodied release.

Often, dancers say they can feel her heart in the music she chooses. With a natural sensitivity to the room, Abi guides the dancefloor with warmth, presence and care - creating a safe, inclusive space where you’re free to move, express and reconnect in your own way.
