"To bring some joy to you, we want to share reflections of our recent January performance, which was all about dreaming and embodying the FUTURE, after Apocalypse.
We had an incredible spring of local regional national and international activities planned (see them HERE), but have adapted with grace and vision to begin online creative session offerings to uplift and support our global communities at this time of challenge. Creative cyberworld sessions will include dance, somatic healing, meditation, singing, plant foraging, and survival skills. Our front page of website and Dancing Earth FB page will have updates about class offerings, which were launched on Thursday March 19 , honoring spring equinox day of planetary balance.
In movement and stillness, we are here with you!
Deep breath in, Deep breath out…Heart rises and falls, repeat to rise again…Here we are, in the unknown, each on our own, TOGETHER.
On this sacred day of balance, we share with you news to uplift and inspire!
ROOTED & READY
Dancing earth has a basket we have been filling for this moment… While we have been mobile, bringing that basket to communities in 18 states and 8 countries, now we are bundling the medicine to distribute differently. Deeply rooted in our home bases, we are now poised to share all through the cyberworld, with our friends and relatives across the globe, all at the same time!

DIVERSITY IS OUR COLLECTIVE STRENGTH
For the next ten days we will offer diverse multi disciplinary practices. We invite our circles to learn, smile, sweat, breath, relax, energize, and grow with us online! photo, © Pam Taylor Photography
RISING TO MEET A CHALLENGE
Dancing Earth indigenous contemporary artists rise to meet this challenge: to serve, uplift, inspire, unite our communities around the world who are under stress as we all face a virus that has changed our daily existences. We are excited to innovate how we bring our gifts to community.
Most of our planned upcoming events, classes, in-person workshops and performances through the middle of April have been canceled; we had an incredible lineup of local, regional and national projects.
Please see our EVENTS PAGE for our ongoing updates about our DAILY class offerings!
Including: Empowerment Workouts, Healing, Parent & Child Movement, Improvisation, Plant Foraging, Strength, Superhero Stretch and more!
RECIPROCITY
We meet our community where our community can meet us. We are examining our privilege- what is it that we have to give? Many in our circle are in dire financial crisis, and need these sessions at no cost, so they can find some calm strength. Others have more resources and can make a donation, to support our hardworking artist educators who have lost months of nonstop teaching and performance work, but are still ready to give, serve and work to support their families. Sliding scale, give what you can - even a word of appreciation for the positive impact of these offerings of movement!

WELLNESS
We bring forth creative practices to invoke wellness of body, mind, spirit, emotions, of individual and collective, to invoke calm resilience, strength, energy, and hope.
