I-Opener Virtual Ecstatic Dance & Earthdance Fundraiser

“If you want to go quickly, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.” ~African proverb I-Opener Dance is excited to collaborate with Earthdance this week. We continue blending our dance communities and helping to raise funds for this wonderful retreat center. Earthdance used to host workshops, artist residencies and community programming in the hills of Western Massachusetts. This time we are honored to host a live multi-instrumentalist Rob Flax along with warm up by Helen Styring Tocci. Followed by ecstatic dance wave with DJ’s Journey Weaver & Luminus. Join us as we further explore edges of this virtual experience. Join our global community, share and invite your friends and family! Open your 👁s, dance with friends, and get your weekly dose of bliss! - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - REGISTRATIONS, LINKS, & AUDIO at www.iopenerdance.com - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ❇️ Event Info: 10:00 Arrival & Centering 10:05 Opening Circle & Guided Warmup w/ Helen Styring Tocci 10:10 - 11 am Live music w/ Rob Flax 11 am DJ'd Dance w/ Luminus & Journey Weaver 12:15 Closing Connections 💟 Suggested Contribution: $8 - $15 and possibly more: this week is a fundraiser for Earthdance that has been struggling through the pandemic times.
