DJ Big Heart — Chicago

DJ Big Heart holds the floor at ecstatic dances around Chicago and the suburbs — long-arc sets built to carry a room from a soft opening through the peak and back down into stillness.

"Ecstatic dance saved my life."
For years his body lived in chronic pain. He had tried everything. Then he found a dance floor — and on it, a way for his nervous system to finally put the weight down. Read more on our sponsor page.

Dances with DJ Big Heart

His last one was Friday, September 4, 2026 · 7–9 PM at Blue Lotus Buddhist Temple and Meditation Center in Woodstock, sponsored by Arterrafest — more than 80 people came, which is a big night for a first dance in a new room.

We are not scheduling more dances at that temple. His next dates land at our other floors, so the calendar is the place to look.
