Dance New England (DNE) is a creative collective of individuals who love to dance, as well as a consortium of cooperatively-run, not-for-profit freestyle barefoot dances in the New England area. The current member dances are: Dance Friday in Boston, Dance Spree in Northampton, the Barefoot Boogie in New York City, and the Freestyle Frolic of upstate New York. DNE members are also actively involved in creating and running other freestyle barefoot, cooperative dances in New England and elsewhere. Click here for a list of dances and links from both DNE member dances and non-DNE dances. DNE events include our annual summer camp, and a few weekends throughout the year hosted and produced by our member dances.
Dance New England brings together a community of member dances and dancers. We are united by our love of dance as an empowering community activity.
We believe that everyone can dance and that dance provides us with the opportunity to enrich ourselves and the greater community. We use dance as a medium to communicate and to demonstrate our unity. At Dance Camp and Weekends we come together to dance, express our caring, exchange ideas; and organize ways to communicate and understand each other.
We seek to explore ways to show our commitment to the acceptance of and respect for all people and cultures, the empowerment of children, and the acknowledgement that our bodies and our environment are sacred. We recognize the need for each of us to be able to safely express who we are and be acknowledged for the value of the contributions that each of us brings to this community. These include a cooperative spirit, interdependence, and sustainable volunteerism.
We recognize that how we accomplish our aim is important. Consensus decision-making, non-violent conflict resolution, collective work, personal responsibility, educational inreach and outreach, and flexibility in the face of the need to change are tenets of our organizational democracy. We believe that the conservation of our planet's resources and the fair distribution of the fruits of our labor and play create a positive example for the world.
