About
Late Stage Remedy is a 1 hour collective dance meditation practice, taking place in public parks, led by dance artist Kelly McInnes. Through an improvised score, a group of dancers offer grounding presence, attention & care to the lands they dance on together. Late Stage Remedy is an invitation to remember ourselves as a part of Earth and honor this vital, potent connection.
The practice is free to attend and open to folks with or without dance or meditation experience. For more information and if you would like to participate, please email [email protected]. If you would like to attend to witness the practice, please join us anytime between 12pm-1pm.

Organizer
Kelly McInnes
Kelly McInnes (she/they), a settler of Irish, Scottish & British ancestry, is gratefully based on the unceded Coast Salish territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations. Kelly is a queer dance artist concerned with embodying care and creating as a way to remember connection to Earth and all that is sacred. As choreographer, performer and community-engaged facilitator, the intention of her work is to inspire collective healing. Her Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy practice powerfully inspires her artistic process. Often multi-disciplinary, collaborative and site specific, Kelly's work has been presented in festivals in Canada, Germany and Mexico over the last decade. Community-engagement is integral to her practice. She had the great pleasure to facilitate community workshops and creative processes through MINE / Epoch Youth Project from 2016-2021, as well as Roundhouse Community Dancers from 2019-2022. Her most recent project Late Stage Remedy, a collective dance meditation, invites folks to gather in public parks to share presence and care with the lands upon which they dance. www.kellymcinnes.com
