What Is Shake It So?

Shake It So is a community of people who love starting the day with movement, good music, and a spirit of connection. We dance together in Central MA and on Zoom, and a few times a year we partner with amazing organizations around the world that fight poverty, promote education, and empower communities.

Dance Parties

Welcoming, judgment-free dance parties — Malawi Mondays at noon ET with Malawi music, plus Wednesday & Friday mornings at 8AM ET. Online and in person.

Joyful Community

Shake It So is about fun, friendship, and starting the day with joy. No choreography, no expectations, just people moving together.

Global Connection

Through special events, we dance with students in Malawi and raise support for partners like Bridges to Malawi and The MoonCatcher Project.

Upcoming Event

Menstrual Hygiene Day — Fundraiser with The MoonCatcher Project

Next May, we’ll be dancing with students from Malawi and raising support for The MoonCatcher Project . MoonCatcher provides reusable menstrual kits and education, helping girls stay in school and thrive in their communities.

Our Menstrual Hygiene Day celebration will feature joyful music, connection across continents, and more. Save the date — full details coming soon!

What’s happening

Stickers!

We recently ordered 200 Shake It So stickers. They just came in, I'm so excited! Perhaps irrationally so.

Malawi Monday

Every Monday at noon ET, we dance to Malawi music with friends from the US and Malawi. The midday time is chosen so our friends in Malawi can join at a convenient hour.

We play music by Malawian artists, licensed through COSOMA (the Copyright Society of Malawi). Supporting artists fairly is important to us.
