Afrodance & Storytelling: Let Your body talk

 

The Afrodance & Storytelling collection is a mesmerizing tapestry of movement and rhythm, encompassing a kaleidoscope of African dances from West and Central Africa that cross continents and time. Every dance step is meticulously curated to allow participants to express freely while using contemporary dance techniques to celebrate participants’ unique identity and expression.

"Exploring themselves  and reflecting on their personal journey, each of our movers was guided into a deep dive within oneself to explore what belonging and cultural identity mean to them. What is it that make them feel connected to a place, people and love ones. That feeling taking you by surprise, this emotion going over your whole body, that energy and sensation giving you the comfort that you once long for." - Gracieuse Amah
