A special 5-day Contact Improvisation gathering when we welcome many of our longtime community members and their families to come and dance, as well as embrace those new to our community. Enjoy Earthdance at its fullest: plenty of jamming, camping, fresh foods from our garden, walks in the woods, rejuvenating swims, and clean Berkshire mountain air. A structured children's program is provided for several hours a day. Victor Warring from the Boulder CI community will facilitate with Elena Zubulake.

All levels of experience welcome.

Also, consider coming early to attend CI: Ground Research - A Festival leading up to the July 4th Jam featuring many teachers from around the country and the world, many of whom are participating in the Contact Improvisation Teacher's Exchange Conference earlier in June at Connecticut College. Participants who take both CI:Ground Research and the July 4th Jam receive a $50 discount (for full attendance) and can stay at Earthdance for the 2 days between the events for free.
