We are excited to introduce a new offering – Family Dance Jams at Earthdance!
πŸ‘©β€πŸ‘§β€πŸ‘§ For parents with an established embodiment practice, and their younger kiddos.
πŸ‘©β€πŸ‘§β€πŸ‘§ To remember ourselves as movers and to share in our children’s somatic explorations,
πŸ‘©β€πŸ‘§β€πŸ‘§ And for other adult dancers, especially friends of those children.
πŸ‘©β€πŸ‘§β€πŸ‘§ To support the family movement space with your movement & your relationships.
The Invitation:
πŸ‘¨β€πŸ‘©β€πŸ‘§β€πŸ‘¦ For parents to be in their dancing bodies.
πŸ‘¨β€πŸ‘©β€πŸ‘§β€πŸ‘¦ For children to share our dance space as equally valid, welcome participants.
πŸ‘¨β€πŸ‘©β€πŸ‘§β€πŸ‘¦ To view our kid’s embodiment as a movement practice.
πŸ‘¨β€πŸ‘©β€πŸ‘§β€πŸ‘¦ To find inspiration from each other.
πŸ‘¨β€πŸ‘©β€πŸ‘§β€πŸ‘¦ To improvise with children as dancers.
