Transcend Fest VT 2026: Full Schedule

9:00pm EDT

Friday July 10, 2026 9:00pm - 11:00pm EDT

Step into the pulse of the night with DJ Eric Otero, bringing 20 years behind the decks and a signature sound rooted in Mininal Deep Tech and Tech House. From underground NYC sets to New England dance floors, Eric knows how to build a journey-one that pulls you out of your head and straight into your body.

Expect hypnotic beats, rolling basslines, and a slow-burning energy that builds into a full-on release. This isn't just a set-it's a late-night transmission designed for movement, connection, and losing yourself in the rhythm under the Vermont sky.

Come as you are. Stay as long as you want. This is Transcend After Dark.

Form & Flow: The Art of Intelligent Movement

Saturday July 11, 2026 10:00am - 11:00am EDT

Base Lodge Lower West

This immersive workshop explores the balance between precise alignment and seamless transitions. Together, we’ll refine foundational postures through clear anatomical awareness and then weave them into fluid, breath-led sequences.
You’ll learn how proper form creates stability, safety, and strength — while intentional flow cultivates grace, rhythm, and pranic movement. Through guided breakdowns, hands-on refinement, and progressive sequencing, we’ll discover how alignment supports freedom rather than restricts it.
Perfect for teachers and dedicated practitioners who want to deepen their understanding of how to move skillfully from pose to pose.
Come prepared to slow down, refine, and then flow with clarity and confidence.

Flows over Flaws: A creative's guide to perfectionism

Saturday July 11, 2026 1:30pm - 2:30pm EDT

Base Lodge Lower West

In an era where every move feels curated and every creation pressured to be flawless, perfectionism is the silent killer of creativity. Flows Over Flaws is a workshop for creatives who are ready to break free from the paralysis of overthinking and reconnect with their true expression. This session blends candid conversation, somatic insight, and real-world tools to help break through the inner blocks that keep your work stuck in draft mode. We’ll explore how perfectionism shows up in the creative process and how to override it with embodied flow using a tried and true 3 part puzzle piece.
