🔥 Bid on Dancing Pots: Unique Custom Ceramics 🔥
There are 11 days left to bid in Earthdance’s online fundraising auction—don’t miss your chance to bring home this one-of-a-kind offering!
Dancing Pots invites you into a collaborative journey of intention and artistry. As both a dancer and ceramic artist, Miranda Busansky weaves movement, emotion, and ritual into each piece.
💫 Treat yourself or give as a gift and receive:
2–4 custom bowls or cups, co-designed with the recipient to reflect chosen shapes, textures, and intentions. Whether it’s a comforting bowl, a forgiving cup, or tea vessels for peace, these pieces will be infused with meaning and care.
🔥 Fired in a wood-fired kiln, these ceramics embrace the unpredictable beauty of transformation—offering an earthy, soulful alternative to shiny, colorful ware. Says the artist: "If you are interested in very colorful, clean, and shiny pots, then perhaps these are not for you. If you are interested in co-creating with me in the process of altering matter and praying to the flames, of drinking and eating from these prayers, then these vessels await you!"
🌟 If you’re drawn to the magic of co-creation and the alchemy of fire, this offering is for you!

Want to add to your teaching repertoire? Appeal to a new demographic?
Check out our upcoming ContaKids Teacher Training - for the first time in the USA!
ContaKids is a unique movement methodology designed to enhance the physical and emotional connection between children and parents through playful movement. Rooted in principles of contact improvisation, the method promotes trust, body awareness, and joyful interaction.
By working with the body, movement and physical contact, parents and children develop a new, physical form of communication, which is enjoyable for both; children enhance and improve their motor skills and self-confidence and parents develop a sense of trust in their child and themselves.
For the first time, we are excited to bring our teacher training to the USA! This training provides participants with the knowledge, tools, and hands-on experience to lead ContaKids classes in their communities. Join us in launching this transformative program in the US!
Taught by Itay Yatuv - Former Artistic director of the Hakvutza Dance School; trained as a contemporary dancer in New York, Italy and Israel; Aikido practitioner, a practice he integrates in his dance work; and creator of the Contakids method which invites children and parents to play together through movement and touch.
