SUMMARY:Eclipse Season
DESCRIPTION:Eclipse Season\nFriday\, August 21st\, 2026\nFacilitator: DJ SeigeA (CJ O’Reilly) \nWhat grabs our attention more than the darkening of our nearest celestial bodies? \nWhile we may not always be in a position to directly view the eclipses\, these powerful events occur regularly and in groups. There was recently a solar eclipse\, and at the end of the month there will be a partial lunar eclipse. \nWhat does this cycle mark for you? What do you notice in the shadows of these eclipses? \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Night Bloom
DESCRIPTION:Night Bloom\nFriday\, August 28th\, 2026\nFacilitator: Jeannie Adair \nWhat in you is waiting for the right conditions to bloom? \nSome flowers open only after the sun has disappeared. \nThey need no instructions.\nThey do not strain toward the light.\nThey simply wait for the conditions that allow what is already within them to unfold. \nOn this late August summer night\, let’s gather to create those conditions together. \nNIGHT BLOOM \nThere are flowers that wait for darkness. \nAll day\,\nthey hold their fragrance close\,\nasking nothing of the sun. \nThen evening comes. \nThe air cools.\nThe garden grows quiet. \nAnd under the guidance\nof the moon\,\nsomething hidden\nbegins to open. \nPerhaps something in you\nhas been waiting\, too. \nAnd given the fertile dark\,\nthe beckoning moon\,\nthe ancient rhythms\,\nand a body unbound\, \nthat bud will remember\nhow to bloom. \n  \n

SUMMARY:The Deep Alive
DESCRIPTION:The Deep Alive\nFriday\, September 4th\, 2026\nGuest DJ: DJ Yaku Beat (Josh Courtney)\nSupport Facilitator: Kris Hostikka \nThe Deep Alive is an exploration of worlds within worlds. From the vast architecture of the cosmos to the intricate intelligence of the choreography unfolding inside a single cell\, reality transforms depending on the lens through which we encounter it. If we zoom out far enough\, our individual lives become almost invisible. If we zoom in far enough\, what once appeared invisible reveals itself as an entire universe. This dance is an experiment in changing the lens. \nDJ Yaku Beat will be accompanied by special guest William “Elan” DeHaro performing acoustic spanish guitar and ethereal violin. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Levity Obscuro
DESCRIPTION:Levity Obscuro\nFriday\, October 2nd\, 2026\nFacilitator: Kristikka \nAs the leaves fall and the earth draws her breath inward\, we too are invited to soften\, sink\, and return to what is real. We step into the mystery—feeling our way through the dark\, trusting the body to know what the mind cannot see. Let us meet the unknown with curiosity\, courage\, and a little mischief; perhaps the great mystery has a sense of humor too. May we feel the weight of our bodies\, the pulse of the blood\, the wildness beneath the skin. Tonight\, we dance with all of it: the shadow and the spark\, the grief and the joy\, the animal and the divine. Nothing to hide\, nothing to fix—just this wild\, beautiful life moving through us\, laughing as we find our way home. \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Let it Fall
DESCRIPTION:Let it Fall\nFriday\, October 9th\, 2026\nGuest DJ: Stacey Butcher\nSupport Facilitator: Megan Belling \nFall invites us into a different rhythm. The days grow shorter\, the air changes\, and the natural world begins to release what it no longer needs. \nWhat if we took a cue from the season? \nWhat are you ready to let fall away? What happens when you stop holding yourself together so tightly? When you let your shoulders drop\, your breath deepen\, your body soften\, and the music move you? \nThis Ecstatic Dance is an invitation to loosen your grip\, shake things loose\, and let yourself be moved. There’s nothing you need to figure out or get right. Just bring your body\, your curiosity\, and a willingness to follow where the dance takes you. \nCome sweat. Come play. Come get a little wild. Come let it fall. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Hope
DESCRIPTION:Hope\nFriday\, October 16th\, 2026\nFacilitator: Sara Bensman \nIn times of change that are unprecedented\, anxiety-producing and far reaching\, it feels helpful to explore the edges and embodied experience of the verb Hope. \nHope Is Not a Bird\, Emily\, It’s a Sewer Rat \nby Caitlin Seida \nHope is not the thing with feathers\nThat comes home to roost\nWhen you need it most. \nHope is an ugly thing\nWith teeth and claws and\nPatchy fur that’s seen some shit. \nIt’s what thrives in the discards\nAnd survives in the ugliest parts of our world\,\nAble to find a way to go on\nWhen nothing else can even find a way in. \nIt’s the gritty\, nasty little carrier of such\ndiseases as\noptimism\, persistence\,\nPerseverance and joy\,\nTransmissible as it drags its tail across\nyour path\nand\nbites you in the ass. \nHope is not some delicate\, beautiful bird\,\nEmily.\nIt’s a lowly little sewer rat\nThat snorts pesticides like they were\nLines of coke and still\nShows up on time to work the next day\nLooking no worse for wear. \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Stargazer
DESCRIPTION:Stargazer\nFriday\, October 23rd\, 2026\nFacilitator: Megan Belling (DJ Esmæ) \nThis dance is an invitation to look up and feel small in the best way possible. Sometimes life can make us feel so big\, like we’re responsible for so much\, with so many people depending on us. One day our dramas will be buried beneath the dirt. Looking to the stars can help us pause and remember that all that will be left in the end are the echoes of these magical moments. \n  \n
