SUMMARY:Spread Your Wings
DESCRIPTION:Spread your Wings\nSunday\, November 16th\nFacilitator: Conway Weary \nGentle Dancers. As we are of this Place\, we know the winds of this Place – from the soft breeze that sings with the trees and caresses our skin\, to the destructive sweep of a hurricane\, and all the inbetween winds and their stories. And here\, as the biting North Wind of Winter approaches\, we also know ourselves to be in a great sweeping gale of global change and uncertainty. Gentle Dancers\, wind energy infuses this mix. Let’s spread our wings and practice riding the currents together. And in the riding\, and within the wide reach of our wings\, may we tell a great and everlasting story of love and resilience.

SUMMARY:The Best Medicine
DESCRIPTION:The Best Medicine\nSunday\, December 7th\, 2025\nFacilitator: Kris Hostika | DJ Kristikka \nWhen we step into this sacred dance container\, movement becomes medicine for the soul. We all create this safe and nurturing space in order to feel all of who we are. Bring your joy\, your tenderness\, your wildness\, your truth. Through the rhythms\, movement and permission to surrender\, dance becomes a powerful healer where we can shake out stress\, open our hearts\, awaken creativity\, and deeply connect with our divine essence. \nTogether we journey meeting what arises\, shedding what’s ready to fall away\, and discovering new strength and clarity on the other side. This dance is a ritual of renewal\, a huge dose of self love\, and a reminder that your body knows the way. \nWhat medicine is waiting for you in this dance?

SUMMARY:Let Go\, Come Closer
DESCRIPTION:Let Go\, Come Closer\nSunday\, December 14th\, 2025\nFacilitator: Sara Bensman \nThe origins of the seasons is understood through the tale of Persephone\, who spends her winters in the underworld with the dark god of that world\, Hades. In most tellings\, she is taken by him against her will\, but perhaps she chooses to be with this dark lover. \nPersephone’s mother\, Demeter\, the goddess of seeds\, growth and fertility\, decimated by the loss of her beloved daughter to the world of death\, arranges a solution in which Persephone is returned to her. But then\, in a surprising twist\, Persephone eats the pomegranate seeds from the underworld and this act commits her to returning to Hades every winter. And thus begins the seasons. \nThis back and forth she does each year between the verdant world of creation and the dark world of death is what makes Persephone both complex and familiar. Don’t we all have to find the balance within us to survive the vicissitude of life? We are constantly in the throws of calling what we love closer and letting go of what no longer feeds us. This mix is an honoring of that tension between moving towards and releasing\, making room in our internal closet for the springtime by honoring the letting go of the winter. \nPhotograph by Laura Pashby

SUMMARY:Dance Like a Child
DESCRIPTION:Dance Like a Child\nSunday\, January 4th\, 2025\nFacilitator: Ted Riskin \n“Babies don’t perform movement — they discover it.”\n— Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen \nFrom a recent NYTimes article: \nBabies and toddlers are un-self-conscious when they dance. They’re spontaneous\, present\, unconcerned with who’s watching them. This approach brings us back to our own intelligent bodies\, our own basic understanding of what it is to be alive. \nDo adults perform movement when they dance? They do. We do. We have no choice — we’ve done it before\, so each time we dance we’re re-enacting the remnants of every time we’ve danced previously. We try and fail and try again to catch the rhythm; we think about how we’re being perceived. But what a privilege it is to move\, even if it’s awkward\, to be embodied and expressing and trying to be responsive to a beat\, to be more subject and less object. \nSo much of our movement is just using our bodies like reliable vehicles to get ourselves from one place to another. Dancing is an act of remembering that\, once\, when we were small\, everything was new. Once\, we moved our bodies primarily in order to play\, express and discover. The more online we become\, the farther we drift from our earliest soundtrack\, the rhythm that’s in us before we’re born\, the basslike thump-thump of our mother’s heartbeat and the oontz-oontz of her circulating blood. \nYou can watch adults learning from a toddler here and here. \nParents: ask your little one if they would be willing to teach us all some moves during the first several minutes of the wave!

This approach brings us back to our own intelligent bodies\, our own basic understanding of what it is to be alive. \nDo adults perform movement when they dance? They do. We do. We have no choice — we’ve done it before\, so each time we dance we’re re-enacting the remnants of every time we’ve danced previously. We try and fail and try again to catch the rhythm; we think about how we’re being perceived. But what a privilege it is to move\, even if it’s awkward\, to be embodied and expressing and trying to be responsive to a beat\, to be more subject and less object. \nSo much of our movement is just using our bodies like reliable vehicles to get ourselves from one place to another. Dancing is an act of remembering that\, once\, when we were small\, everything was new. Once\, we moved our bodies primarily in order to play\, express and discover. The more online we become\, the farther we drift from our earliest soundtrack\, the rhythm that’s in us before we’re born\, the basslike thump-thump of our mother’s heartbeat and the oontz-oontz of her circulating blood. \nYou can watch adults learning from a toddler here and here. \nParents: ask your little one if they would be willing to teach us all some moves during the first several minutes of the wave!
