Chicago Ecstatic Dance - A Weekly Sanctuary for Movement & Expression

Join us every Wednesday evening for a space devoted to free-form movement, authentic expression, and the freedom to move through whatever is alive in you.

This is your midweek pause — a moment to step out of the mind and drop fully into the wisdom of the body.

Our dance floor is a sanctuary where emotion, breath, sound, sweat, and stillness all have a place. Here, you’re invited to explore the full spectrum of your human experience, expressed in real time through movement. Nothing to get right, nothing to perform. Just presence.

Each week, our incredible DJs weave a magical, intentional soundscape, guiding you on a journey that evolves with the collective energy of the room. Together, we co-create a space of community, connection, and liberation.

 Guidelines for Our Shared Space
To preserve the safety, depth, and sacredness of our container, we honor a few simple agreements:

* No guided instruction — this is your space to move freely and follow your body’s truth
* Substance-free environment — come as you are, fully present.
* Non-verbal dance floor — we connect through movement, breath, and presence rather than words.
* No phones, videos, or photos — the dance floor remains a private realm for internal exploration and collective trust.

If you’re longing for a place where you can release the facade, arrive as your whole self, and express rawly and openly in community…

If you’re seeking a weekly ritual that nourishes, grounds, and reconnects you…

If you’re ready to explore the depths of your being with an open heart —

We would love to welcome you into our Wednesday sanctuary.

Come as you are.
Move as you feel.
Belong as you arrive.

RAGEher Chicago: For Moms + Caregivers

RAGEher Chicago: For Moms + Caregivers

Release What You've Been Carrying

A movement and embodiment experience created for mothers and caregivers.

Motherhood is one of the most scrutinized, romanticized, politicized, and unsupported experiences in our culture.

And mothers are fucking exhausted.

We're told to be grateful, but not to complain.
To be present with our children, but productive enough to keep up.
To prioritize our families, but not lose ourselves.
To advocate fiercely for our children, but never be that mother.
To practice self-care, but only after everyone else's needs are met.
To raise emotionally healthy children while navigating a world that rarely makes room for our own emotions.

And when mothers finally get angry about any of it?

We're told we're too emotional. Too reactive. Too hormonal. Too sensitive. Too much.
Our frustration gets met with advice to be more patient instead of questions about what we need.
Our exhaustion becomes a personal failure to manage our time.
Our grief gets met with reminders of how lucky we are.
Our anger becomes something to fix, regulate, medicate, or make disappear.

But what if our anger isn't the problem?

What if some of what we're feeling is a perfectly reasonable response to the impossible expectations, systemic failures, and cultural contradictions of modern motherhood?

What if our anger has something important to tell us?

Because beneath the love, the joy, the tenderness, and the extraordinary experience of raising human beings, there's often a whole lot of shit we haven't been given permission to feel.

The resentment. The heartbreak. The loneliness. The invisible labor. The loss of identity. The fear for our children's futures. The rage at systems that demand everything from mothers while offering so little in return.

You can love being a mother and still be fucking furious about what motherhood asks of you.

Both can be true.

And you deserve somewhere to bring ALL of it.

Whether motherhood came to you through birth, adoption, fostering, partnership, chosen family, or another path...

Whether you're parenting young children, grown children, longing to become a mother, or redefining what motherhood means in this season...RAGEher is an invitation to put some of that weight down.

Because mothers deserve more than being told to take a deep breath while the world keeps asking them to carry the impossible.

What happens at RAGEher?

This is not group therapy.
This is not an anger management class.
This is not a rage room.
(Although we do have padded bats, pillows, and mats to throw a tantrum on.)

And no one will force you to scream, share, cry, or participate in ways that don't feel right for you.

RAGEher is a substance-free movement and embodiment experience for those who hold womanhood or femmeness in their body, story, or spirit. 

Think of it as a moms night out at the club—reimagined.

Through music, movement, somatic practices, emotional expression, and community, you'll be guided through an experience designed to help you reconnect with your body, your voice, and your aliveness.

What This Looks Like:

🔥 Begin in the Tempest Tavern with guided reflections on your relationship with anger
🔥 Join the Fury Floor for somatic release, movement, dance, and emotional expression
🔥 Experience an intentionally curated + diverse music arc
🔥 Explore sacred rage rituals—our space is a playground for your curiosity
🔥 Gather in the Livid Lounge for refreshments, integration, and small-group reflection
🔥 Be supported every step of the way by experienced Rage Doulas

Some people cry.
Some people scream.
Some people laugh.
Some people dance.
Some people shake.
Some people simply witness and allow themselves to feel.

There is no right way to be here.

Simply showing up for yourself is the work.

Who Is This For?

At RAGEher, we take an expansive view of both womanhood and motherhood.

This gathering is for anyone who holds womanhood or femmeness in their body, story, or spirit—and who experiences motherhood as part of their life.

That includes cisgender women, transgender women, nonbinary, gender-expansive, and queer folks who feel called to gather around the shared experiences of womanhood and motherhood.

Whether motherhood came to you through birth, adoption, fostering, step-parenting, kinship care, chosen family, donor conception, surrogacy, or another path...

Whether you're parenting infants, toddlers, teenagers, adult children, or navigating an empty nest...

Whether you're a single parent, partnered parent, co-parent, divorced parent, widowed parent, or doing this without the village you wish you had...You belong here.

**** If you're currently working with a therapist, coach, physician, or other care provider, we encourage you to consult with them about whether this experience feels like a supportive fit for you.

Who Will Be Holding The Space?

RAGEher is facilitated and supported by experienced Rage Doulas.

For this experience, you'll be guided by a facilitator who is not only deeply trained in this work, but who is also a mother herself. She knows firsthand that motherhood can be one of life's greatest joys—and one of its greatest challenges.

What is a Rage Doula? 
A Rage Doula is a trained space holder who helps people reconnect with anger as a healthy, human emotion.

They don't fix, diagnose, analyze, or manage your feelings. They help you stay connected to your body, listen to what your anger is trying to tell you, and move that energy with intention.

Our team includes practitioners, coaches, facilitators, educators, healers, and community leaders with thousands of hours of combined experience in somatic practices, trauma-informed care, nervous system regulation, emotional expression, coaching, facilitation, rupture and repair, attachment, intimacy, pleasure, and embodied healing.

But credentials aren't what make this space special.

It's that we've done—and continue to do—this work ourselves.

We're not here because we've figured it all out.

We're here because we believe our relationship with anger can change the way we relate to ourselves, our children, our partners, and our communities.

What's included with your Ticket

🎟️ Admission to 2.5-hour experience
🔥 A virtual post-event integration session (75 minutes) to help you process, reflect, and continue working with what emerged during the event
🫂 Access to our ongoing Rageling WhatsApp community for connection, support, resources, and future gatherings

RAGEher Chicago: For Space Holders & All Women + Femmes
Oct

RAGEher Chicago: For Space Holders & All Women + Femmes

An embodiment experience for women + femmes who hold space for others—in their families, relationships, communities, or professions—to reclaim their relationship with anger.

You hold space for so many.

This time, we’re holding it for you.

Join us in Chicago for a RAGEher experience that centers those who hold space for others, while welcoming all women + femmes who are ready to reclaim their anger, reconnect with their bodies, and experience what it feels like to be held.

Rooted in neuroscience, somatic experiencing, and ancestral community practices of witnessing, RAGEher has been shaped by over 700+ women (ages 18–78), along with input from practitioners who continue to help evolve this work.

This is for you if:

  • You hold space for others—whether that's your clients, children, loved ones, colleagues, or community—and rarely get a chance to be held yourself

  • You're longing for an embodied, expressive, connected way to move through your own emotions

  • You're tired of being expected to stay composed, accommodating, or emotionally available when you have your own anger, grief, and needs

  • You want to be part of a growing movement that's changing the way we relate to anger—individually and collectively

  • You're curious about becoming a Rage Doula or facilitator for future RAGEher events

  • All bodies and abilities are welcome here. Our venue has an elevator, and this experience can be modified to meet your specific needs.

What happens at RAGEher?

This is not group therapy.
This is not an anger management class.
This is not a rage room.
(Although we do have padded bats, pillows, and mats to throw a tantrum on.)

And no one will force you to scream, share, cry, or participate in ways that don't feel right for you.

RAGEher is a substance-free movement and embodiment experience for those who hold womanhood or femmeness in their body, story, or spirit to reclaim their relationship with anger.

Through music, movement, somatic practices, emotional expression, and community, you'll be guided through an experience designed to help you reconnect with your body, your voice, and your aliveness.

You don’t have to perform. You don’t have to hold. You get to be held.

What others have said 

“I’ve been a therapist for over a decade, and this is the first time I’ve gotten what it means to integrate my anger. That it’s intention and action and my life force.”

"As a mother of multiples and a wife, I am constantly tending to the emotional needs of my family every single day. I am constantly regulating everyone else's nervous system while my own nervous system is depleted. RAGEher gave me a space to reconnect with the unseen parts of me that needed to feel seen, the parts of me that needed to release the weight of it all, and the parts of me that needed to feel cared for too." 

“I came here wanting to release anger. I didn’t expect to be sobbing in the arms of a stranger (Rage Doula). It felt strange and also so good, especially given how much space I hold for my clients.”

Who holds the Space Holder?

At RAGEher, that support comes from our team of Rage Doulas.

A Rage Doula is a trained space holder who helps people reconnect with anger as a healthy, human emotion.

They don't fix, diagnose, analyze, or manage your feelings.
They help you stay connected to your body and move that energy with intention.

In a culture that often teaches us to suppress anger, fear it, intellectualize it, or pathologize it, Rage Doulas help people reclaim anger as information, boundaries, truth, self-respect, power, and a pathway toward what matters most.

Our team includes somatic practitioners, clinicians, coaches, facilitators, educators, intuitive healers, community leaders, and helping professionals with collective expertise spanning somatics, neuroscience, nervous system regulation, emotional expression, trauma-informed care, rupture and repair, intimacy, pleasure, and embodied healing.

More importantly, we're humans who understand what it means to carry hard things.

And we believe nobody should have to carry them alone.

Accessibility matters to us

We have a discount for practitioners who are interested in having a reciprocal relationship with RAGEher.
Reach out to RAGEher's founder, Krissie, at krissie@askhuh.com to join our growing community of practitioners! 

All bodies and abilities are welcome here. Our venue has an elevator, and this experience can be modified to meet your specific needs.

The work starts with us

So many of us have learned how to hold space for everyone else's emotions while making very little room for our own.

We listen. We care. We nurture. We advocate. We hold it together.

Whether we do this professionally or simply because of the roles we've been expected to carry, we deserve spaces where we don't have to be the ones holding it all.

This is your invitation to feel what you've been avoiding. To tell the truth. To listen to your body. To move toward what's alive.

Join us for an afternoon of embodied practice, emotional expression, community, and connection with women + femmes who are reclaiming their relationship with anger.

Because those who spend so much of their lives holding others deserve to be held, too.

We saved you a spot. ❤️‍🔥

RAGEher Chicago: For All Women and Femmes

RAGEher Chicago: For All Women and Femmes

Release What You've Been Carrying

A movement and embodiment experience for those who hold womanhood or femmeness in their body, story, or spirit to express rage and the full range of human emotions that come with it. 

The world is heavy right now.

We're navigating our own lives, relationships, families, careers, identities, and responsibilities while also carrying the grief, uncertainty, division, and exhaustion of the world around us.

RAGEher is an invitation to put some of that weight down.

To stop holding it all together.
To feel what's actually here under the surface.

The anger.
The grief.
The joy.
The heartbreak.
The relief.

For one night, you don't have to have it all figured out.
You just have to show up.

Join a community of women who just fucking get it.
Because some things were never meant to be carried alone.

Why Rage?

The world asks a lot of women.

To care for everyone else while neglecting ourselves.
To keep the peace, even when something feels wrong. 
To make everyone else comfortable. 
To be endlessly giving and understanding. 
To stay productive, high-functioning, and grateful no matter what's happening in our lives and in the world.
To carry the unseen labor no one else notices. 
To hold it all together, at all times, no matter what.

And when we can't?
To blame ourselves.

Many of us grew up with parents, caregivers, educators, and communities who didn't know what to do with anger either. Maybe anger was explosive and unpredictable. Maybe it was punished. Ignored. Feared. Shamed. Maybe we learned that expressing anger wasn't safe—or that it made us difficult, dramatic, ungrateful, selfish, or too much.

So we learned to swallow it.

We carry it in our shoulders, jaws, stomachs, nervous systems, relationships, and bodies.
We call it stress. Burnout. Overwhelm. Exhaustion. Resentment. Numbness.

For some of us, it can look like chronic tension, chronic pain, fatigue, relentless self-criticism, autoimmune conditions, or a body that feels like it's carrying far more than it was ever meant to hold.

But rage isn't the problem.
Rage is information.
Rage is often the emotion beneath boundaries, truth-telling, self-respect, liberation, pleasure, and change.

At RAGEher, we help you learn how to listen to it.

How to move it.
How to use it on purpose.
Toward your purpose.

What happens at RAGEher?

This is not group therapy.
This is not an anger management class.
This is not a rage room.
(Although we do have padded bats, pillows, and mats to throw a tantrum on.)

And no one will force you to scream, share, cry, or participate in ways that don't feel right for you.

RAGEher is a substance-free movement and embodiment experience for those who hold womanhood or femmeness in their body, story, or spirit. 

Think of it as a girls' night out at the club—reimagined.

Through music, movement, somatic practices, emotional expression, and community, you'll be guided through an experience designed to help you reconnect with your body, your voice, and your aliveness.

Some people dance.
Some people shake.
Some people simply witness and allow themselves to feel.

There is no right way to be here.

Simply showing up for yourself is the work.

Who Is This For?

At RAGEher, we take an expansive view of womanhood.

This space is for anyone who holds womanhood or femmeness in their body, story, or spirit—including cisgender women, transgender women, nonbinary, gender-expansive, and queer folks who feel called to gather in community around these lived experiences.

Whether you're:

✨ Deeply rooted in your identity
✨ Still figuring things out
✨ The person who's been in therapy for years but feels like something is still missing
✨ Someone doing all the "right" things for your healing and growth but craving a more embodied experience
✨ Completely unsure what to expect, but something in you knows you need this

You belong here.

Over the years, we've welcomed mothers, survivors of SA and DV, neurodivergent folks, diverse bodies, cancer survivors, caregivers, community leaders, helping professionals, those navigating perimenopause and menopause, women going through diverse, separation, or loss, and the woman who everyone else thinks has it together while she's quietly carrying the weight of the world.

The common denominator isn't your background.

It's being human.

It's having a body that has carried too much for too long.

It's knowing there's something inside you that needs room to breathe.

**** If you're currently working with a therapist, coach, physician, or other care provider, we encourage you to consult with them about whether this experience feels like a supportive fit for you.

Who Will Be Holding The Space?

RAGEher is facilitated and supported by experienced Rage Doulas.

A Rage Doula is a trained space holder who helps people reconnect with anger as a healthy, human emotion.

Our dance floor is a sanctuary where emotion, breath, sound, sweat, and stillness all have a place. Here, you’re invited to explore the full spectrum of your human experience, expressed in real time through movement. Nothing to get right, nothing to perform. Just presence.

Each week, our incredible DJs weave a magical, intentional soundscape, guiding you on a journey that evolves with the collective energy of the room. Together, we co-create a space of community, connection, and liberation.

 Guidelines for Our Shared Space
To preserve the safety, depth, and sacredness of our container, we honor a few simple agreements:

* No guided instruction — this is your space to move freely and follow your body’s truth
* Substance-free environment — come as you are, fully present.
* Non-verbal dance floor — we connect through movement, breath, and presence rather than words.
* No phones, videos, or photos — the dance floor remains a private realm for internal exploration and collective trust.

If you’re longing for a place where you can release the facade, arrive as your whole self, and express rawly and openly in community…

If you’re seeking a weekly ritual that nourishes, grounds, and reconnects you…

If you’re ready to explore the depths of your being with an open heart —

We would love to welcome you into our Wednesday sanctuary.

Come as you are.
Move as you feel.
Belong as you arrive.

Cheers for Choice
Aug

Cheers for Choice

Cheers for Choice is an independently organized fundraiser benefiting the Chicago Abortion Fund, bringing together more than 20 local businesses, artists, and volunteers who have donated their time, talents, goods, and services to make the event possible.

Guests will enjoy drinks, light bites, live screenprinting, neworking with CAF volunteers, and  opportunities to win prizes donated by beloved Chicago businesses including Steppenwolf Theatre, Metric, Avondale Bowl, and many others, while supporting the nation's largest abortion fund.

At a time when Illinois continues to serve as a critical access point for abortion care, we wanted to create an event that celebrates the generosity and creativity of Chicago's community while raising funds for abortion access.

Curious about 2099: Race to Dystopia?

Curious about 2099: Race to Dystopia?

Our bi-monthly Creative Interest Sessions are open to artists, makers, performers, and creatives interested in contributing to 2099: Race to Dystopia, a week-long immersive arts festival taking place March 15th - 21st 2027 at the Hairpin Arts Center.

The year is 2099.

Corporations and extreme wealth dominate society while most people struggle to survive in the shadows. Lifespans are extended through artificial means, healthcare is reserved for those who can afford it, and basic resources have become scarce. Fresh food is tightly controlled, and the divide between the wealthy and everyone else continues to grow.

Yet beneath the surface, underground communities find hope in the legend of 21H2, a robotic martyr whose message of unity, resilience, and collective strength inspires those determined to create a different future.

These gatherings are an opportunity to learn more about the event, meet fellow creatives, and discover where your talents and interests might fit as we build toward the March 2027 experience. There is no obligation to participate and no need to attend every session.

Simply join one gathering to learn about the project, connect with the creative team, and explore potential opportunities for involvement.

REACHING FOR GOD
Aug

REACHING FOR GOD

Syncy.ti.a, founded by Irebami Rosenje and Tali Degani, debuts their first collection: "Reaching For God, Finding Your Hand". 

“Reaching For” is a collection of streetwear pieces that draws from dynamics of worship in pop culture and the underground scenes the duo have been exposed to growing up in Chicago.

The project continues to inspect the relationships we have with things we cannot touch yet grasp for continually, including celebrities, idols, and religious figures. Their collection aims to break down those boundaries, imploring viewers to look inwards and pledge their fealty to what is tangible: our loved ones, our communities, and ourselves.

RAGEher Chicago: The world is heavy, this is your release.
Jul

RAGEher Chicago: The world is heavy, this is your release.

The world is heavy right now.

Many of us are navigating heartbreak, grief, caregiving, burnout, relationship challenges, uncertainty, and major life transitions while also carrying the weight of injustice, violence, division, and the collective pain unfolding around us.

And yet we're rarely taught what to do with the emotions that arise in response.

Especially anger.

Most of us were never taught what to do with anger.

So we swallow it.

And it’s actively harming us. We turn it inward as self-criticism. We carry it in our shoulders, jaws, stomachs, nervous systems, relationships, and bodies. We call it stress, burnout, overwhelm, tension, chronic fatigue, resentment, depression, numbness, and autoimmune disease, and a random collection of body ailments. 

But anger isn't the problem.

Anger is the force behind human rights movements, boundary setting, truth telling, protection, liberation, pleasure, and the courage to move toward our deepest yearnings and desires.

RAGEher offers something different.

Through movement, music, somatic practices, and community, you'll be guided through a powerful emotional release experience designed to help you reconnect with the parts of yourself you've been taught to suppress.

This isn't about losing control.

It's about learning how to use your rage on purpose, toward purpose.

Held by experienced Rage Doulas with thousands of hours of training in somatics, coaching, therapy, nervous system regulation, and trauma-informed care, you'll be supported every step of the way inside a carefully facilitated emotional container.

WHAT TO EXPECT: 

For helping professionals, healers, and space holders seeking a deeper understanding of embodied anger, emotional release, and their own humanity. You hold space for everyone else, let us hold you.

WHAT’S INCLUDED:

Admission to the 2.5-hour experience
Virtual post-event integration session (60 minutes)
Access to our ongoing Rageling community via WhatsApp

WHO IS THIS FOR?

RAGEher Queer
A queer-centered experience created for LGBTQIA+ community members to release, reconnect, and be fully themselves in community. You may be exploring your queerness for the first time or you may have been out your entire life, this is for you no matter where you are in your journey.

Claim your tickets here.

**We strive to make this an accessible space for all. This event is wheelchair accessible and all somatic practices can be done with limited mobility. Please consult your physical and mental healthcare providers if you’re unsure if this is right for you. We trust that you know your body best. 

PRICING ACCESSIBILITY:

Everyone deserves a space to rage and release. Limited sliding-scale tickets are available.

Early registration is encouraged as these tickets go fast.

Many women who are financially resourced give a little extra on top of their standard ticket to support another woman to rage.

Early registration is encouraged as these tickets go fast. 

Many women who are financially resourced give a little extra on top of their standard ticket to support another woman to rage.
