Longdance brings together those new to ceremonial process and ways, as well as those who return to continue their work year after year, for the past 33 years.

Like many cultures around the world, we gather to celebrate in a sacred way by holding a special annual ceremony that honors the Earth Mother, the living systems of Nature, the phases of womanhood, and Matriarchal lineage of our ancestry.

While the ceremony is danced by women only, men stand in support as members of the Thunder Lodge, our brothers who honor the women by offering balance in holding this sacred container and safeguarding the ceremony.

It is a transformational event for everyone who comes, although there is an age requirement for youth to dance.
