At Riverdance Soapworks we conscientiously promote a co-operative effort between all living things. With creative and healing spirits, we offer extraordinary handcrafted artisan bath and body products.
We choose thoughtful, intelligent stewardship of our planet, and of this magnificent home we call earth. We use 'green' production techniques with no hazardous materials created or released into our environment, and we adhere to cruelty free research; we never test our products on animals.
We are extremely grateful for each and every one of our faithful, trusting customers. We go the extra mile to make sure you get full value with every purchase.

Riverdance Soapworks has been intensely involved in researching, developing and handcrafting all natural, "true" soaps and a beautiful line of additional bath and body products since 1991. We are truly one of the longest-standing hand crafted soap manufacturers in the USA. There really is no substitute for experience. You cannot create it, or imagine it. You must undergo it. Our passion for the craft has served as both anchor and compass to keep us on course through the evolution of our solid business. We are proud and grateful Members of the Handcrafted Soap Makers Guild.
Deb started handcrafting her own bath and body products in 1991 while living a "back to basics" lifestyle on a farm at the base of majestic Mount Rainier in Washington State. Soap making became her passion as well as her livelihood, and the 'factory' quickly outgrew the confines of her home. Living on the Skokomish River for over twenty years has affirmed her lifelong belief that Nature cleanses, heals, and nurtures all living things. For Deb, dancing by the river was a way to celebrate and honor those healing benefits.

Testimonials
This order is a birthday gift to my son. I fell in love with the soaps after learning about them at the Olympia Farmer’s Market. I bought two bars and then was given the space bar. Luxurious!! My son’s gift is personal toiletries hand picked by his mom (that’s me). Luffa sponges from the Luffa Farm in Nipomo, CA, and a shaving kit from Harrys.com. I’ve purchased and used all the items mentioned. I support home grown businesses that stand by their creations and customers. Thank you Riverdance! Keep doing what you’re doing...and keep growing!!

"I found your Walking Stick "Step it up" product at the Olympia Farmers' Market. I absolutely love it. I live in the tropics and struggle with fungal issues. This is the first product that has shown progress in healing it; beating anything a doctor has prescribed, and best part, is that it's all natural. I just bought 4 more large sticks. Thanks a million!"

"Last year I had a red itchy rash break out from my knees down to my ankle. Everything I tried didn't help. I bought Essential Therapy at the Olympia Farmers Market, and after using it for a little over a month the rash is gone and has not returned. I started getting dry/old age white dry spots on my neck and chest and thought I would try using the Body Butter. After a few weeks the spot is completely gone!! I'm so glad that I found an amazing product like this. Thank you!"

"I'm wondering if the "essential body butter" is the same as the "healing body butter". I stocked up on your products
(2+ years worth) prior to moving from WA to NC and I'm out of the precious healing body butter. No other products work like yours. Loyal customer
Thanks,"

"I stopped by your booth yesterday AM to share how thankful I am for your foot products. I came by last July when the psoriatic arthritis was at it's worst. By that time, I had tried 5 different prescriptions on the area with no success for almost 8 months. The gentleman who helped me at your booth recommended both the balms. And it was so successful...that within a week you could barely see the psoriasis! Incredible!
I continue to use it when I sense a flare starting to happen and with each pedicure and/or foot massage.
It has been consistently normal now for almost 10 months. Yesterday, I purchased more of your products...and if you've seen an uptick in business, it's because I refer everyone I know to you. I can't thank you enough, you changed my life!
In deepest respect and thanks,"

"Bought your Walking Stick "Step it up" and took it on a trip to Indonesia. We visited temples, hiked in Komodo Islands. This is the best insect repellent ever! And it smells great too! I had to hide it so other people wouldn't steal it. Thanks for such a great product"
- Ana Martin
"I bought a large jar of essential therapy body butter, and you gave me a bar of soap. I just used the soap on my dog and I cant believe the fleas that came off and died, and the dirt. Anyway would like to see about getting more."
- Blenda
"I was at the Olympia Farmers Market today and bought the Black Raspberry Vanilla Beer Soap, Coconut Body Butter, Orange Pomegranate Body Butter, and 4 Bath Bombs. They smell amazing!! I look forward to repurchasing in the future-- thank you for making such great products!!"
- Shae Lyn
"I wanted to let you know that I had received a small jar of your Body Butter and found it to be the absolute best skin cream I have ever used and that includes these so-called "miracle" moisture and healing creams."
- Leigh Bennett
"Oh Deb! This is the best stuff, really creamy, luscious flavor and feeling. This is "Da Balm" lip care!!! Thanks"
- Krista Griggs
I contacted you a few months ago about purchasing your walking stick (Foot & Shoe Treatment) for my son's foot issues. My son had over 20 planter warts forming on the bottom of his feet, to the point that the doctor's were telling us he would have to come in daily for two weeks for continual freezing. They were absolutely everywhere. Then I had him start using this product and within two weeks they were all gone! No freezing, no doctor visits! This product truly is a gift for my son and people with feet issues. Thank you again!
Sincerely, Patricia M
