Earthshake 2025 GRAND FINALE :: Dec 5th :: Northampton MA :: Father Otter & Passionflower

Dear Friends! It's time for a 2025 GRAND FINALE!!! This world desperately needs wildness, courage, joy and unification... This world desperately needs people to shake off their hesitations and set ourselves free. That's why we host Easrthshake every. single. month. We have danced every month FOR A YEAR!!!!! In January, 2025, we released a calendar of twelve "first Friday" ecstatic dances.... We held our course, and shared 11 exquisite, wild dances together, every month, every first Friday, as promised.... (Plus one BONUS Halloween Dance!) You have all been AMAZING, showing up time and again to our beloved temple at Studio 444. This completes FOUR years of monthly Earthshake dances, and somehow, the dance still feels fresh, alive and NEW every single month. Thank you for stepping onto our ship and setting sail again and again. You are an incredibly devoted, enthusiastic community who make the effort to host worthwhile. With a revolving cast of Djs, unique themes, a dedication to diverse music, and hundreds of passionate dancers, Earthshake continues reverberate with joy, magic and connection, to share a better world. Let's finish 2025 with an extra special, extra wild, extra passionate GRAND FINALE! Dec 5th, 2025 25 Main Street Northampton, MA Studio 444 8pm - Midnight $20-25 *no drugs or alcohol* FT: Father Otter Passionflower The only rule is: RESPECT Respect yourself by listening to your body, heart, needs and boundaries. Respect others by giving everyone space to experience their own journey, and only enter other's bubble with a clear yes to a clear ask of consent. Respect the space by treating it like a temple (because it is one) - No street shoes, no drugs or alcohol We 100% welcome volunteers and teammates who want to help with setup, breakdown, decoration, door shift, and other novel inspirations to make the space magic / nourishing. We always have work trade opportunities for those who would prefer to exchange time rather than money for admission, and, we will always admit guests who want to participate but can not afford a donation. Just send a message to Andrew in advance to be added to a guest list for free or discounted admission. If this is your first ecstatic dance, come early for an introduction to dance floor culture. You know what to do. Let's have fun. Let's set ourselves free! Every dance is a work of art, and you are a part of it. Every single one of us has a spark that is begging to blaze like a fire. Set it alight! Our raw humanity still lives within us. Our raw GOODNESS still wants to grow like a proud tree. Even if it has been trampled 1,000 times, trees in the forest always determine to grow back toward the sun again and again and again. Let your wildness free. Let your rage roar. Let your dreams erupt. This is our world. This is our life. Make it beautiful and abandon anything that tries to keep you small. This is a space to break your cage and strengthen your wings. See you on the 5th, and long into 2026. <3 Passionflower
