Support us

Dance Against Violence is much more than workshops: it's a movement that offers a sensitive and creative space of expression to women victims of violence and marginalized people, where the liberating force of the body supports the regaining of power. Since 2010, we've been using dance as a tool for well-being, solidarity and resistance.

Summary of the “15 Years of Bloom” Campaign

Thanks to your incredible outpouring of support, we’ve officially crossed the finish line! Our initial goal of $15,000 was surpassed, reaching a magnificent total of $15,073.29, raised through 61 donations. In this momentous year, your invaluable support demonstrates a deep commitment to the mission of Dance Against Violence.

Every contribution directly translates into a safe, supportive space on the ground where women and children can regain their sense of agency as they rebuild their lives after experiencing violence. Your donations will help sustain our work, enable us to offer nearly 50 workshops throughout the year, and train the next generation of our facilitators to meet growing demand.

Back on June 3 celebration

To celebrate this collective spirit, we were delighted to gather at our offices on June 3 for a thank-you cocktail party. It was a special opportunity to step through the looking glass.

A huge thank you to the donors and participants who took part in this event. During a 30-minute introductory workshop at the Ashtanga studio, you were able to experience firsthand the power, attentiveness, and kindness of DCV’s somatic approach.

We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to facilitator Elinor Fueter for her thoughtful facilitation of this workshop, as well as to Salomé Janan, whose presence and sharing of her experiences helped shed light on the realities and impacts of our daily work in women’s shelters.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for fostering resilience and keeping our community’s spirit alive with such solidarity.

If you’d like to continue supporting our daily efforts, you can make a donation at any time on Canadon.

A thousand thanks to our valued donors and partners:
