Join us Thursday, April 18th, May 16th, and June 20th at 6:30pm for a special Haitian Folkloric Dance Workshop with Daniel Desir!
Haitian culture has made immense contributions to global music and the modern dance world. Join us for a rare opportunity to engage with Haitian folkloric dance traditions, including yanvalou, congo, and ibo. The workshop will cover fundamental movement vocabulary, and students will learn about timing, technique, and improvisation. There will be live drumming! No experience necessary.
