Mission Statement
Earthdance provides a gathering place that inspires the art and spirit of improvisation. We support and train people at all skill levels to find and develop expression in movement, theater and music. The influence of nature and the ongoing contributions of community members and skilled teachers enliven workshops, jams, peer-led groups, and retreats. A core of residential staff integrates artistic practice with everyday work commitments.
