Summer is here! It's time to soak up the sun, get our feet in the soil and dance our hearts out.
About this Event

Summer time never felt so good, you know what feels better? Feet in the soil and grass stains on our knees! It's time to dance outside!! We are welcoming in our first outdoor summer dance at Fort Mifflin, located just on the edge of Philadelphia near the airport.


Join us on >> SUNDAY JUNE 4<< for your dose of Dance Medicine.


Welcoming in our next Dance Medicine DJ!

Yemanjo is a project of producer, DJ, and singer/multi-instrumentalist Ben Harris. Born and raised in the rich cultural stew of California's Bay Area, Harris has called Lake Atitlan, Guatemala home since 2016. His original music is a polyrhythmic concoction of downtempo/ethnic house beats blended with traditional instruments and tribal chants from Latin America, Africa and the Middle East--influences drawn from Harris' near-constant world travels.

Yemanjo's all-original live set is a singular fusion of hard-hitting electronic beats with organic instrumentation and singing in multiple languages.

Yemanjo is an embodiment of the ancient concept of "music as medicine", and brings an intention of healing and transformation to every production and live set.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

But first....

Warm Up your body with a very special guest, Andie & David

David Siller is one of the coordinators for DMP. He has been a teacher of acro yoga, yoga and contact improv for several years. Andie weaves somatic sensitivity with play to help you resensitize to your core child like essence. Come for a silly time where we’ll let our brains take the passenger seats as our bodies move us. Healthy function-full movements will guide us into an experience of wholeness while we dance with ourselves, a partner and as part of a greater group. Contact improvisation beginner friendly.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

And finally ::

Let yourself soften and melt into a restful savasana as you receive Yemanjo once again for a sound bath.


>> The location that will be hosting our dancing bodies will be Fort Mifflin... of course in the city of brotherly & sisterly love.
