California Dance Camp Gathered on Zoom
It was sweet and just a little sad. On Saturday, June 19th, Bay Area Circle Dancers held a zoom gathering for all the dancers who had joined us at West Coast Dance Camp over the years. We may have come for the dancing first, but we missed connecting with people, catching up, and making new friends. This was the best we could do. Cheryl Fulton was our MC, and she kept us on track and upbeat, starting us off with an opening dance and introducing a brief history of our dance camps by the Bears followed by a beautiful video by Mark Reed with scenes from camps past. 30 People joined the conversation, after which John Bear led us in Dreams of Harmony to close. See You Next Year was our parting hope.
Meanwhile Dance with us at Home!

Stay Safe! our hearts are with you;
We do traditional dances from around the world (Greece, Israel, Scotland, Russia, France, North and South America, etc.) along with newly choreographed dances to a variety of world music. Dances range from slow and meditative to quite lively. No partner, dance experience, or special skills of any kind are needed. Each dance is taught just before it is done. Beginners are always welcome. Circle Dance is a means for relaxation, joy, growth, awareness and healing. Also known as Sacred Dance or World Dance, it was birthed at Findhorn, a spiritual community in Scotland. We have danced in the East Bay every week or two since 1985, and regularly in other northern California towns including Pacifica, Felton, San Leandro, Petaluma, Grass Valley, and Mendocino.
