The very first gathering of the JoyDance community was held in September 2016.  This was before JoyDance even had a name!  In fact, we initially just called it "The Dance" which quickly changed to "Mindful Movement for Joy and Freedom."  What a mouthful!  It was Christmas of  2016 when the name for this wonderful new practice finally surfaced - JoyDance! 

​

We were a small group back then meeting twice per month to dance, make new friends and explore the transformative connection between body, mind and spirit.  It has been such fun to watch the growth we have experienced over the years.  We now have flourishing weekly dances, retreats, workshops and an online community.  JoyDance has blessed our lives.  We invite you to join us and share in the JoyDance experience.
