We launched into cyberspace, recognizing the resources we do carry, of movement knowledge and caring compassion for communities around the globe.
This is an entirely new initiative, that takes Courage and Trust, as we are making this offering without any funding in place. We received one donation in March which covered our first few weeks of programming, and Rulan is donating her fee from academic researcher for writing of Dancing Earth’s response to virus, in order to continue until the end of April.
If you can donate any amount, one time only - or monthly, to support the continuance of these innovative offerings, together we can reclaim cyberspace for intercultural healing, resilience, and re-imagining the future!
