Dance For Earth is an environmental art project and ongoing event that bridges somatic/dance practice with ecological awareness and community building. Participants experience movement as a physical and artistic practice as well as an actionable response to environmental urgency.
 

Each event includes representatives from a different local environmental organization to share not only their dance (as class participants) but inform initiatives and call-to-actions that direct artists/class takers towards the most meaningful step. In this way, these events are a form of advocacy and education on local environmental projects. 
Each class is geared towards the good work the organization is doing for the environment through a one-hour, high-energy, integrative, guided experience. All bodies and levels of movement practice are welcome.

​

Donations are redistributed directly to these local environmental organizations working in conservation, climate resilience, and urban ecology.


Thanks to all who joined in for our last Dance For Water celebration.

DANCE FOR EARTH- SHAKE LAB

April 18th, 2026

9:45-11am

At the San Diego Made Factory. 

Save your spot here! 
We are halfway full​
​

According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, we are currently in the wood 🪵  (spring) season. For April, we're

donating to Tree San Diego honoring this season for expansion and growth.

SHAKE LAB is where we find the endless ways to shake, rattle, jostle, rock, jiggle, agitate, and jolt our systems in a collective and durational practice.
No dance experience needed. There's no wrong way.

 

Thank you to our space,  San Diego Made Factory! woman-owned 501(c)(3) - Made is an artist collective organization and a vibrant Creative Flex Workspace and Event Venue located in San Diego.

​​​​​

Thank you for your contribution and your grooves.

Let’s continue to move for the waters that connect us.

Let’s continue to make our joy an act of protection.

 

May 23rd, we will be supporting the San Diego River Foundation. Stay tuned!
