A Quick Note from Rulan Tangen, Dancing Earth News
This is Rulan sending you a quick note because I am in the creation process, so super busy and super excited to invite you to our fall harvest of offerings! This is what we have been working towards since all our live performances were cancelled : a mini series of dynamic episodes evoking post-apocalyptic embodiment of the future, made by our artist/filmmakers with a virtual reality designer!

Revitalizing Autumnal Equilibrium, Dancing Earth News
At this time of equinox, we reflect on the need for balance amongst all forms of life on earth. We reach out with our dances to heal, to hope, to ground, to question, to reach, to dream...as we pray for good health, clear air, and an end to the devastating fires raging across the west coast of the U.S.

We are so grateful, Thank You! Dancing Earth News
As Founding Artistic Director of DANCING EARTH, I felt the great shift this year has brought: much loss, sorrow, pain and with it an opportunity for truth and for re-imagining. With support from our circle, we have been able to meet this challenge with creativity and collaboration, to meet the moment, and welcome, in online practices, an uplifting of our incredible artists and our communities.

"JOY" emerges as a ‘ Citizen Commission ‘ - coming from the mind and heart of the wondrously creative Alexandra Riggs Stivala who befriended Rulan when they were teenage ballet students at Marin Ballet, California.
