Water Dances

ADT Ensemble Artist, Kealoha Ferreira, guides this weekly dedication to the vitality and life force of Water. In class, we will offer breath, dance, meditation, story, song, and reflection. Each class will take shape a little differently, staying responsive to the ongoing movements protecting the sacredness and longevity of water worldwide. Water Dances will begin with grounding movement, flow into dedicated time for personal practice/research/reflection, and close with collective sharing.

Class meets weekly on Wednesdays, from 9:45-11:00am, at the Shawngrām Institute for Performance and Social Justice. All who are committed to deepening their relationship with Water are welcome to participate. No previous dance experience is required. Sliding scale price: $0-$20.

Yorchhā Elements — Online Only

Yorchhā Elements offers the foundations of a Yorchhā movement vocabulary. Yorchhā is Ananya Dance Theatre’s trade-marked contemporary technique that intersects principles of vinyasa yoga, classical Indian dance form Odishi (from the eastern Indian state of Odisha), and martial art form Chhau (also from Odisha). These traditional aesthetics are refracted and reimagined through transnational-feminist practices of solidarity and resistance to create a contemporary vocabulary of movement that dances forward our dreams for a just world.

Fridays, April 11-June 13
5:00-6:00pm

Virtual class
Instructor: Kealoha Ferreira
Sliding scale price: $0-$20

This is an entry-level class; no previous dance experience is required. Participants will receive a Zoom link upon registering.
