The Daily Dancer
Building a daily dance practice one moment at a time
The Daily Dancer is a monthly soft-time invitation to support creators in activating a personal, daily dance rhythm that fits their lives. Each month Mother Mother welcomes visiting dancers into her extensive, 20+ years archival library to engage with materials, resources and inspirations towards building a daily dance practice. Dancing everyday, in rhythms that are authentic and generative for who we are as mothers and creators, enhances the applications of fertility radiance and creative superpowers in our lives. The Daily Dancer archive includes film stories, audio notes, practice guides, photo essays, sermons in development, dance-along videos, movement prompts, fertile soundscapes by DJ Mother Mother Be, and much more! For 7 consecutive days Mother Mother takes workshop participants on delightful, soft-time tours into the magical, vast dreamscape that is Dancing Mother. Participants can explore the portals at their own pace, and are also encouraged to add their creations and stories to the workshop archive if they feel the Yes.
The next workshop opens Sunday July 6, 2025
The Daily Dancer: revival of Joy
Summer 2025: June | July | August
“We’re going to have a party…a party with our possibilities!”
For our Revival of Joy season, Mother Mother centers offerings to help us practice being with the gravity of difficult life moments. Through a juicy constellation of shares, guides, and reflections, Mother Mother encourages us to discover how we can—and must—still find our way into movement even when we might not feel much like dancing.
The Daily Dancer adventure is an opportunity to practice turning to the movements—our own movements—and resourcing the brilliance of our bodies first. In this workshop we develop effective tools for choosing the dance before escaping, avoiding, or distracting ourselves with things that take us further away from our joys, our power, our creations. This dance is for anyone who is ready to heal, regenerate, amplify, and expand their fertility radiance, creative superpowers, and frequencies of joy, and believes that their majestic dancing body is at the center of that transformation.
Dance to a fertile soundscape
Originally created for the Fertility Abundance Garden, Soft Mornings is a fertile soundscape by DJ Mother Mother Be that offers movers and groovers gentle invitations for activating their bodies for a day of generative and joyful creations.

Developing a Daily Dance Practice
The Revival of Joy Daily Dancer workshop supports mothers and creators in activating these core skills toward sustaining a daily dance practice:
Centering our dancing body brilliance in the cultivation of our dreams
Every part of our body is engaged in creating that which we are bringing forth—a starseed, a baby, an enterprise, a book, a healing, an ancestral Communion, a new life story—whatever we are feel called to create, it must come from our bodies. Developing an intentional and authentic daily dance practice supports the labors and intelligence needed to be with the intensity and majesty of journeying with our dreams into reality.
Learning how to dance with life as it comes
Essential to any daily dance rhythm is a surrendering of the perfect dance conditions, and a willingness to use whatever time, energy, and space is available to us—however life is flowing that day. Mother Mother will offer fun, accessible movement invitations to support mothers and creators in experimenting with dancing in new moments and new ways throughout their days. The Daily Dancer helps participants identify and activate pockets of possibility anywhere, anytime.
Dancing with our grief, hurt, and heartache to source new life and new joys
A significant part of our life and labors is navigating the storms and turbulence that comes from being alive and engaged in the worlds around us. Sometimes the pain or discomfort, the fear or the rage, take up residence in our bodies. The cumulative weight of those heavy energies might drag our spirits down and make movement feel out of reach. The Daily Dancer is a practice in moving tenderly and honestly with the realities of our hurts, and discovering the juicy reawakening of the dance and movement power that is always somewhere inside of us.
Explore a dance practice
The ringshout is a counterclockwise processional dance that was created by African peoples enslaved on American plantations in the South. Mother Mother reimagines and experiments with the ringshout as a spiritual tool for visioning and healing in her work as a dancing mother, sovereign birthkeeper, and fertility priestess.

Finding the possibility everywhere
Our bodies are at the center of everything we create. Developing a daily dance practice enhances our creative capacities, boosts our fertility radiance, and amplifies the courage we need to activate our wildest dreams. The Daily Dancer is a soft-time, explore-as-you-feel-led-to, gentle constellation of movement practices. The Daily Dancer is for creators who want to build their own movement rituals that fit the unique frequencies and rhythms of their lives.
Mother Mother offers a diverse collection of accessible invitations that encourages every creator to customize a practice made for their lives through play and experimentation. Each day of the soft-time workshop includes a thoughtfully curated tour of select offerings from Mother Mother’s archive:
Mother Mother’s deep reads, scriptural extractions, and excerpts from developing sermons sparked by her movements, life moments, and other revival dance practices
Invitations for movement play inspired by Mother Mother’s communions and dance experiments with moving with/through what hurts
Short voice notes with expansions and possibilities for deepening into one’s practice
New songs and music inspiration
A Moment for Movement dance practice prompts
Call & Response group shares where participants can add their movements and discoveries to the workshop archive
