Upcoming Events
EarthSing
August 15-18th, 2024 at Earthdance in Plainfield, MA
Join us for EarthSing, a co-creative gathering of song, ritual, and embodiment. Our workshops and shared practices include improvisational singing, somatic practices, folk songs, song circles, invocations, and musical embodiment. Singing together in this way can open the heart, the voice, and get the creative channels flowing!
Singing together is a ritual, and song has been part of collective ritual practice across time and place. In this gathering, we will explore the capacity of the voice to connect us more deeply to ourselves, each other, and the land.
Each morning we will ground into our bodies and the earth through somatic practices and connection to land, followed by a group morning session with a master song leader. Throughout the day there will be workshops and jams from facilitators and community members, with encouraged flexibility for integration, play, and personal practice. The evenings will feature our collaborative rituals and fireside music jams.
As an organizer of EarthSing, I will be leading morning somatic movement practices and song witchery.

Queer Jam
September 19th - 22nd 2024 at Earthdance in Plainfield MA
In this year’s Queer Jam, we’ll explore what it’s like to center Queer Joy, liberate ourselves, our bodies, and our relationships from supremacist narratives, and investigate what it means to queer contact improvisation. Let us infuse queer joy into our bodies and our dances as we dismantle the confines of limiting heteronormative conditioning.
Bring your joy, your grief, your pleasure, your play, your curiosities, your quietness, your loudness, your tenderness and your fierceness. All skill levels are welcome!
During this jam, we aim to create a trauma-informed, anti-racist, and liberatory container in which to explore CI, somatics, co-regulation, deep listening, play, prayer, ritual, song, and reciprocity with the land.
I am co-hosting the Queer Jam, and will be offering a somatic grief and prayer ritual along with somatic warm-ups into jamming.
