Master Choreographer and Artistic Director of Internationally renowned Arabesque Dance Company, Earthshakers and YRArt's Global Collective, Yasmina Ramzy will create a dynamic and theatrical choreography embracing the individual talents of a diverse group of dancers brought together for this weekend event.
The result of the weekend collaboration will end with a full-length free performance featuring the ensemble work. To be a participant in Yasmina Ramzy's creative process is a rare and profound learning opportunity where every dancer is seen as a unique and vital ingredient.
There will be 2 opportunities for the public to to ask Yasmina and the participants questions about the dance and creative process during this weekend of dance creation:
Saturday 6:00 -7:00 pm you will get a behind the scenes look the last hour of the rehearsal then there will be a Q and A with Yasmina and the participants.
Sunday afternoon 3:00 - 6:00 pm you are invited to watch the performance of the dance that was created followed by a Q and A with Yasmina and the participants.
