~ Dancing with Darkness ~
December 19th at 7pm
Earthdance Creative Living Project
252 Prospect Street, Plainfield, MA 01070
The darkest day of the year approaches. You are invited to dance with this darkness and explore all that is alive within the shadows.
The dance will take place during the transitioning of the Winter Solstice and held similarity to an ecstatic dance, yet slower, more introspective, and grounded in emotional movement. Honoring the energy of winter as a season of rest, reflection, and regeneration.
We will embrace and move through themes of grief, depression, fear, anger, death, oppression, and repression. Discovering the balance and wisdom these energies hold and the joy and sweetness that is entangled within it all. Ending the dance feeling lighter than when we arrived.
The musical journey will guide us through the depths of discomfort and into the fullness of joy. The sonic journey will have flavors of electronica, downtempo bass, ambient soundscapes and live instruments.
Kaitlyn Cronin will be leading a somatic warm-up journey through the exploration of darkness, for us to truthfully and honestly be with the entire spectrum of aliveness.

Kaitlyn ~
Kaitlyn’s work lives in the intersection of spirituality, mycology, creativity, and the integration of Death in the sacred cycle of Life. The more she dives into each of these avenues the more she recognizes they are all languages describing the same phenomenon.
With the mycelial web as her greatest teacher and creation as her devotional practice, Kaitlyn weaves stories through visual art and immersive experience; embedding us into our ecosystems and sparking a remembrance of our interstitial and unique place in the expansive web of life.
