Dance for Humanity: Soul Fire Farm
I met Jen Earls, the founder of Dance for Humanity, through David Vendetti’s Yoga Liberation Front teacher training. I was immediately taken by Jen’s sparkly energy, loving vision, and deep compassion. When Jen said she was starting this project, a co-created choreographed dance of authentic movement that is bringing together people together in community, to benefit an eco-social, People of Color-led farming community Soul Fire Farm, dedicated to ending racism and injustice in the food system, I knew I had to cast aside that objection, “but I’m not a (trained/real) dancer” and go all in, even though it’s not in my comfort zone (especially because it’s not in my comfort zone).
And, I am finding it to be healing, freeing, and SO FUN. We’re meeting (& moving) together in practice each week, ahead of our live performance in Boston!
