Hello dear Earthdancers,

We're very excited to actually SEE some of you at the first on-site events coming May 15th! Registration is open and spots are limited. See below for details and links.

Wishing you all well,

What a weekend! From April 23-25th, more then 100 presenters shared their visions, ideas and invitations around topics of Consent, Race, Queerness, Equity, New CI Forms, Climate Change, the Pandemic and more.

Couldn't make it but interested? You can still register to gain access to the recorded sessions. Viewing available until MAY 31st.

*Note Time Change from 10am to 12pm*

For over a year, Earthdance has been closed to outside visitors, so what better way to come back than to connect to the earth and grounds together. Join the community for a day of cleaning up the grounds to prepare for the summer. Projects will be outside and socially distanced, unless working with others from your family/pod. COVID safe practices required.

Participants are then invited to stay for the Outdoor Music Jam for FREE!

(no need to register for the music event, unless you'd like to donate money)

Following the Spring Clean, Earthdance is hosting its first COVID "safe" outdoor music event. COVID protocols will be in place and there is limited capacity.  Let the music move you and dance away (at a physically safe distance from others or within your own pod). Bring your own picnic and drinks. 

Regal Beasts is the stylistic synthesis of rarely associated instrumentation and sonic texture. Charlotte Malin, through her viola, violin, and voice wields a rich background of classical music, while Sean Patrick Maher brings a wide variety of textures with the electric guitar and a myriad of effects. Together they weave a tapestry of looped improvisational exploration... COME DANCE in NATURE

A monthly BIPOC- only space for self -identified Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) with Taja Will & Brian Evans

The centerpoint of our time together will be a proposal to focus on our own bodies, in stillness and movement, and our connections with each other. We will have no goals, we will not need to share what we accomplish, there is no need for success in our time together. This is not a class, this is an invitation for building connections together across distance.

NEXT MEETING June 20th with Andrew Suseno

COMING UP: AUGUST JAM?? Aug 3-8, 2021 SAVE THE DATE

What will an Earthdance Summer Jam be like in 2021?  Can we realistically host a jam? Will venues and activities be opening back up by August? Will a Jam be entirely outdoors, smaller than normal, involve dancing in specific pods? 

We don't know the answers to these questions, but we want to begin planning for the possibility that we could host a version of our Summer Contact Improvisation Jam. We'll share more information as it is determined, and in the mean time we invite you to hold August 3rd to 8th as a potential time for an event or series of activities.

Thank you and take good care,

Earthdance Team
