/español abajo
Hello family,
The biggest conscious music gathering in Perú – Ecstatic Dance Sacred Valley is coming back with a visit to the incredible Munay Sonqo Retreat Center in Arin to unite us to dance for peace.
Opening: Despacho with Maria Apaza (Q’ero Altomisayoq)
Line up:
Chancha via Circuito (Argentina)
Mikongo aka Miki Gonzales (50 years on stage)
Movement medicine with Anna Sierpowska (Poland)
RAQ (Ecstatic Dance Sacred Valley, Peru)
+ Cacao, Ritual Theater, Sound Bath, Delicious food & Elixir Bar
As usual we will open the day at 12 PM with an offering by Maria Apaza, the 98 year old Altomisayoq of the Q’ero Nation, the last descendants of the Incas. Maria is one of the most powerful spiritual leaders of Perú, at her age still traveling the world and sharing her prayers at the power places like Giza Pyramids or Tulum.
Then the Sikuris will lead us inside of the temple to open the dance space with an ancient prayer of sound and community.
The main performance of the day will be one of the biggest names on the Latin downtempo scene – Chancha Via Circuito coming from Argentina. He collaborated with artists like Nicola Cruz, El Buho or Baiuca. His tracks are being played around the world in millions and while listening you can hear lot’s of inspirations with latin folk as well as dub and downtempo. His tracks like Ilalo or Jardines have been played in our dances countless times so it makes me event more happy to now receive the artists himself to share his music in person.
The second main act of the day will come from the Peruvian music scene legend – Miki Gonzales, in his electronic music project called Mikongo. Miki is still celebrating 50 years on stage and it’s an honor to welcome him back to our event. His music introduced many generations of Peruvians to reggae and afro rhythms, while his lyrics were strongly anti-establishment. As a producer he likes mixing house music, downtempo and folk influences from Peru and Latin America.
Our female guest who will open the dance space of the day is my friend Anna Sierpowska and her Movement Medicine – she’s not a dj but what she does is something between a workshop of movement and presence mixed with a shamanic trance. She’s very charismatic as she leads the crowd with her voice and movement.
The host of ED Sacred Valley – RAQ will have the honors of closing the evening with his usual Ecstatic Dance music selection combining inspirations from plant medicine work and life in the jungle and the Andes. So far performing from Japan, through Germany, Poland, Norway, Greece, UK, Romania, Portugal, Mexico, Costa Rica and Peru along artists like Mose, Rodrigo Gallardo, Porangui, Ape Chimba, Alex Sierra, Janax Pacha, Flume, Tokimonsta and many more.
We close the night with a grounding sound journey and Sacred Fire.
As usual we will have a cacao ceremony by Padme and the art of ritual theater by Antua
Location:
It’s time to share a few words about the incredible space of Munay Sonqo Retreat & Yoga Center – Sach’a Munay in Arin, Sacred Valley where the event will take place and this time mention it’s unique story of an eastern European novel called The Witcher, bestselling video game and Ayahuasca healing. (!)
Munay Sonqo is probably the most amazing retreat center and temple space in Peru and one of the best ones in the world. The place is nestled below the sacred apu Pitusiray and nearby a waterfall. It’s gardens are full of flowers and humming birds, while there are 2 tons of selenite crystals under the wooden floor of the main temple where we will dance, with the view of Pitusiray through the glass roof. If you want to have some relaxation, you can also get the the spa ticket with jacuzzis, saunas, cold plunge and salt cave (200 soles ticket+spa). Or if you want to go with a full retreat you can rent a room, with food, spa and ticket included (450 soles).
Not many people know the story of the center, it was created by one of the owners of CD-Projekt Red, the game dev company that took a famous polish novel about a Witcher who takes different magical potions in order to slay demons and turned it into the best selling game in the world, making the owner rich but also destroyed with stress from work. It’s been ayahuasca, yoga and vipassana that helped him to heal and change his life. He decided to leave the gaming industry and share the healing he received, so he opened Munay Sonqo in orders for others to also experience the magic of these holistic modalities.
Thanks to that we can now come together dance in the best space in Peru!

Hola familia,
El encuentro de música consciente más grande del Perú – Ecstatic Dance Valle Sagrado regresa con una visita al increíble Centro de Retiros Munay Sonqo en Arin para unirnos a bailar por la paz.
Apertura: Despacho con María Apaza (Q’ero Altomisayoq)
Póngase en fila:

Mikongo alias Miki Gonzales (50 años en los escenarios)
Medicina del movimiento con Anna Sierpowska (Polonia)
RAQ (Danza Extática Valle Sagrado, Perú)

Como de costumbre abriremos el día a las 12:00 horas con una ofrenda de María Apaza, la Altomisayoq de 98 años de la Nación Q’ero, últimos descendientes de los Incas. María es una de las líderes espirituales más poderosas del Perú, a su edad todavía viaja por el mundo y comparte sus oraciones en lugares de poder como las Pirámides de Giza o Tulum.
Luego los Sikuris nos conducirán al interior del templo para abrir el espacio de danza con una antigua oración de sonido y comunidad.
La actuación principal del día será la de uno de los nombres más importantes de la escena downtempo latina: Chancha Via Circuito procedente de Argentina. Colaboró con artistas como Nicola Cruz, El Buho o Baiuca. Sus temas se reproducen en millones de personas en todo el mundo y, mientras los escuchas, puedes escuchar muchas inspiraciones del folk latino, así como del dub y el downtempo. Sus temas como Ilalo o Jardines han sido tocados en nuestros bailes innumerables veces por lo que me hace aún más feliz recibir ahora al propio artista para compartir su música en persona.
El segundo acto principal del día vendrá de la mano de la leyenda de la escena musical peruana – Miki Gonzales, en su proyecto de música electrónica llamado Mikongo. Miki sigue celebrando 50 años en el escenario y es un honor darle la bienvenida nuevamente a nuestro evento. Su música introdujo a muchas generaciones de peruanos al reggae y los ritmos afro, mientras que sus letras eran fuertemente antisistema. Como productor le gusta mezclar música house, downtempo e influencias folklóricas del Perú y América Latina.
Nuestra invitada femenina que abrirá el espacio de danza del día es mi amiga Anna Sierpowska y su Movement Medicine; no es dj pero lo que hace es algo entre un taller de movimiento y presencia mezclado con un trance chamánico. Es muy carismática mientras dirige a la multitud con su voz y movimiento.
El presentador de ED Valle Sagrado – RAQ tendrá el honor de cerrar la velada con su habitual selección de música Ecstatic Dance que combina inspiraciones del trabajo de las plantas medicinales y la vida en la selva y los Andes. Hasta el momento actuando desde Japón, pasando por Alemania, Polonia, Noruega, Grecia, Reino Unido, Rumania, Portugal, México, Costa Rica y Perú junto a artistas como Mose, Rodrigo Gallardo, Porangui, Ape Chimba, Alex Sierra, Janax Pacha, Flume, Tokimonsta y mucho mas.
Cerramos la noche con un viaje sonoro y Fuego Sagrado.
Como es habitual tendremos una ceremonia del cacao a cargo de Padmé y el arte del teatro ritual a cargo de Antua.
Ubicación:
Es momento de compartir unas palabras sobre el increíble espacio de Munay Sonqo Retreat & Yoga Center – Sach’a Munay en Arin, Valle Sagrado donde se llevará a cabo el evento y esta vez mencionar su historia única de una novela de Europa del Este llamada The Witcher. Videojuego más vendido y curación con Ayahuasca. (!)
Munay Sonqo es probablemente el centro de retiros y espacio para templos más sorprendente del Perú y uno de los mejores del mundo. El lugar está enclavado debajo del apu sagrado Pitusiray y cerca de una cascada. Sus jardines están llenos de flores y colibríes, mientras que hay 2 toneladas de cristales de selenita debajo del piso de madera del templo principal donde bailaremos, con la vista de Pitusiray a través del techo de vidrio. Si quieres relajarte, también puedes adquirir la entrada al spa con jacuzzis, saunas, baño frío y cueva de sal (entrada 200 soles+spa). O si quieres ir con un retiro completo puedes rentar una habitación, con comida, spa y entrada incluida (450 soles).
No mucha gente conoce la historia del centro, fue creado por uno de los propietarios de CD-Projekt Red, la compañía de desarrollo de juegos que tomó una famosa novela polaca sobre un brujo que toma diferentes pociones mágicas para matar demonios y lo convirtió. en el juego más vendido del mundo, haciendo rico al propietario pero también destruido por el estrés del trabajo. Fueron la ayahuasca, el yoga y la vipassana las que le ayudaron a sanar y cambiar su vida. Decidió dejar la industria del juego y compartir la curación que recibió, por lo que abrió Munay Sonqo para que otros también experimentaran la magia de estas modalidades holísticas.
¡Gracias a eso ahora podemos juntarnos a bailar en el mejor espacio del Perú!

Despacho with:
Maria Apaza
The opening despacho ceremony of the festival will be held by the legendary 98 year old Q’ero Altomesayoq – Maria Apaza, who at her age still travels the world and shares her powerful prayers, from Giza pyramids to Tulum.
She will be also offering coca readings amd energetical clearings to the participants.
“Altomesayoq (Al-to-me-sa-yok) Alto means ‘High’/ mesayoq means ‘One who has power’. It’s rumoured that there are roughly 10 Altomesayoq alive today spread throughout Peru and Bolivia.
The difficulty in becoming an Altomesayoq is that one needs to be struck by lightning and survive. There’s an initiation process that involved dedicating her life to a path chosen for her by something larger than herself. An Altomesayaq is said to have a special communion with the spirit world.
The ceremony where the despacho is collectively created is a beautiful, South American tradition, where elements from the Earth are chosen and the offering is built together, as a group, with intent and love. Ultimately, the Despacho offering goes back to Mother Earth, filled with prayer, along with the intentions and vibrations of those participating…a living request to bring energy shifts and healing in exchange for the continued love and care of Mother Earth.”
