Prolyfyck Community Walk & Run
Friday April 18, 2025 5:45am - 7:00am EDT

Lace-up your shoes and take to the streets for a fun run with the Prolyfyck run crew in support of a unified community where representation and inclusion matter. Prolyfycks’ mindset centers around community and abundance, rather than competition. Whether you come alone or with a group, you will receive an abundance of encouragement, support, and love along the way! Run together, not against each other!

At the end of the run, participants will circle up for announcements, community support, recognition of new folx, and finally to let some rage out (release any internal energy/emotion flowing in the body through yelling) before the close of the event.

Earthday Everyday Blessing and Conscious Dance Party is proudly hosted by the Cville Dance Co-op.

This Earth Day, community members are invited to a unique and immersive dance experience—an opportunity to gather in celebration of life on this beautiful planet. Through music and movement, participants will come together to honor the Earth, offering dance as a prayer for the well-being of the planet and all living beings.

The event will begin with a sacred sounding and grounding practice to connect with the Earth as our blessed Home. Following this, a 90-minute conscious dance session will unfold, featuring a powerful selection of Earth-honoring music. In this free-form, expressive movement space, dancers of all ages are encouraged to move their bodies and spirits in harmony with the natural world, embodying gratitude and reverence for the place we all call home.

Open to all ages, this family-friendly and substance-free gathering welcomes anyone who wishes to celebrate Earth Day through movement, mindfulness, and community connection.
