know what crime fighters are back with africa's most successful radio drama series continues tomorrow marcus olds are available on my horse you can share and discuss on w. africa's facebook page and other social media platforms. to me and now. there's a shared space of inspiration and someone in your left can transform. dance for well that's a fair language you need f.l. no girl. wants your. password. can then change the world i mean.

i would like to believe it can and. john says moving their bodies in order to move. without an open atheist. in colorful costumes and or in mosques on the caribbean coast duns is universal. and with a contemporary dance company damaged goods choreography makes do what is known for creating productions that challenge the status quo. and not afraid to work with pain in the darkness or things that are. comfort. but i more to give her

a kind of transformation or transportation or things are moving things still you know bringing things up so they can kind of. open up. contemporary dance pushes emotional physical and social demands it makes a political statement without using any words just great physical exertion what's moving the dance world these days we set off to find out starting interest in. american choreographer meg stewart invited experts from around the globe to dressed in to attend dance congress or tons congress 29 team some 500 people from the world of dance came to share experiences and discuss new ideas one to. mount. was. it's really important it was great to do about this congress is really that

and specialist that people have different interests but that intimacy can really break barriers that people can really. meet in intimate settings and feel like they're being heard and seen. the congress was about the body as well as the mind the global exchange of ideas was to give the dancing new impetus to help people make contacts and break down barriers is. something which required full commitment from everyone present and 2 full years of preparation and planning. with the support of the cruiser institute where shops and meetings were held in the lead up to the congress around the globe as. we called the tense progress along lasting affair so i actually started 2 years before with this desire of bringing artists together so we went to different cities and met. listen certain cities and

brought them together. where they ask questions for the shared they dance together that. kind of an exchange. i think counter with the world of contemporary dance and the journey to country where artistic self-determination still often meets with resistance. the 1st stop picking up fast. in the capital what do we need. e-books internationally as a dancer choreographer and dance teacher yes he has had to fight for recognition in his homeland. defense since it was difficult because my parents didn't accept my choice. they didn't want me to give up building houses and become a dancer because for them dancing had no future but it was really tough going to

have to leave my family. there were no role models and there wasn't a dancer you could point to and say oh with dance you can be somebody with dance you could build homes and buy big cars there were no reference to a song because she did it because once you have a problem in films. it's really tough to live from dancing and burkina faso i have to go elsewhere to do projects elsewhere to earn a living in the interview but what can. develop this production together with an artist from the ivory coast a collaboration that wouldn't have been possible without financial support from france. the stage is littered with trash which symbolizes the chaos of

conditions in many african countries. how can they rise above the chaos and free themselves from dependence on the former colonial powers and what role can. these are questions younger african artists ask. for exhibit will here are afraid to say when things aren't working but i see it as my role to contribute something to change that and we want to do for every human being is useful to society i think as an artist i can create a positive change in the world from dickon to shores on him on positive move to.

you but changing things through contemporary dance is far from easy and looking up . dulce is like selling magical grace still face prejudices and discrimination in the. south pacific and i don't know what contemporary dance is they've never seen it yet they criticize it they say the female dancers are prostitutes before non housewives no one wants to marry us and no families are willing to accept us and our society accepted by. the way still sodomites a cobra a risk at all she left her fiance because he couldn't accept to work as a dancer. the single mother owns a living by performing internationally. no no she is slowly also receiving recognition at home in the end. to. the land. it was already the show. that helped me to convince my family girls who

speak out now they support me and that's why i say to all women it's possible with the will. the choreographic developments and. all the termite mound is a hive of activity and looking at. the under small firm enough project which puts women center stage is also based here. created by the directors of the company. it profiles the work of female dances and choreography. to touch the audience to ask questions. to question what isn't right in our society . improvise in front of. the rundown formative. 900.

1 the country so many pro-democracy movements and cultural projects. today the grounds belong to the choreographic development center several companies are based here it's also home to artists in residence workshops and festivals. here and it's unique in west africa it was founded by. one of the biggest names in contemporary african dance and his latest project he works with refugees from. there are lots of refugees here the 1st place an african refugees head is elsewhere in africa europe. people think africans are going to cross the mediterranean and invade europe for that's false lots of african refugees stay within africa.

to support your purpose of the beyond borders project is to go into the camps and get refugees to dance. this allows them to regain control and self-confidence and to overcome boredom and loneliness. are going to return to campus with new knowledge with a breath of fresh air and hope. they words deal with the issues which affect everyone but from an african perspective. she tries to do that dance for such as dance because it's a universal language you can communicate transmit emotion and church audiences using words. as a representative of africa's politically active dance scene beyond the neighbors you also took part in the town's caucus interest and along with dancers from ghana

and senegal. said they were everything revolved around the arts dance above all things but for me it was a bit more than that we were like a family we had meals together dance together and combine different forms of art there. was a real human element to all the activities with it that's what struck me most thank you. stuart got to know makes sure to dresden. i knew her name from before but we've never met that was the 1st time. mom i danced congress 2019 makes do it is the 1st choreographer to be made artistic director. she hopes to create lasting connections collective experience through dance improvisation and perhaps even that utopia of

a global community. their connections are real the conversations are grounded and they're all sharing different experiences together. and it's great to be in thurso then square with the term attorney and then be in dialogue. with students it's just really i find it really mix and i feel like it has a real promise or no other way of to string. ending this whole dance for me. so i look at the movements between people i'm interested in social courtesy. it can be so simple when we go to meet someone new how do you greet them what or how do we navigate social space social interactions and movements. and what causes change what causes people to really mobilize around a certain idea or to get passion about something where they may stop being neutral

and stop being an observer and kind of apathetic to when they become empathetic. when their legs yes i'm involved i'm with i come with i support so i'm really interested in this fragile systems of support. sharing and learning from one another. workshop with caribbean beats about job audios teaches compared to an african on the end on site music's talk. about mohammed only of my group to like to pay to more over time. it's the rhythm that surrounded me growing up after all. and today i can use this very rich dance language developed my own steps. i only realized now that i draw inspiration from those roots and from everyday relations

and life. gestures are part of a sign language that's hard to put into words. you could always find your freedom through it or save yourself from something. there are codes that help you navigate difficult situations. in this sense it seems done stern create new spaces. a port city on colombia's northern caribbean coast this is the center has been a unesco world heritage site since 984. in the 16th century it was the center of slave trade as a result of cultures and they music styles mixed here leading to

a vibrant colombian done scene. i'll bet a budding us was born in kenya and studied at the renowned. today he teaches there himself. eat at this institutions students are taught a range of different dance techniques everything from ballet to modern contemporary dance. and improvisation exercise. is that somebody else place experimental music while the dancers let the inspiration guide them in creating a new production born out of the moment. here are better as we have seen the performance because leo

a student of his from venezuela. they plan to perform the piece in public spaces. that list coming in. to him not to 70 percent of the population have got there he now has african roots in the language and being white in a predominantly black neighborhood was a challenge for me but i mean to survive here i had to adapt to the environment a. porno to me. is that our whole casing got to him this work here and cut that hand out was a form of dance research that. i wanted to really delve into and explore the people of this city. the output of the room and the name is el mundo. but it somehow

captures the essence of colombians today or you can go along. and to sit down to put a stamp or a man dollar stands for your average person in constant need to come up with a way to survive in the kitchen you know the simplest but upwards or whatever the mundo dances in order to earn a living that would. have solo you. know better body has made a name for himself experimented with new forms of expression and combining improvisation and classical technique. i think to strengthen artist or. they come together and they find. spaces outside of institutions that they find their own initiative that they work on their own and their value and their. connection and how they work

with the city i think this is a kind of empowerment for the l.g.b. t.q. community for instance. in colombia the queer the foreman street house of to us is drawing audience. it was founded back in the 100 in august together with other like minded individuals. with a collective combining voting with the south american. but we also do other things we got together in order to go out in the evenings and to perform to explore to experiment a bit for. let me think if you're elected last year remember feel. bad with a little bit better that many of us are professional dancers who are trained done school as much but as luck to them are as we're top of laboratory for movement

we've expanded the basic idea of dance. more expert and be you know some of us are still studying at the dance academy but i was going to see movement is actually more of a priority than classic training. females and i want to know more you me and. i'll come in for no comment 1st we didn't want to become an artist collective or activist group. or. that wasn't their intention at all but we just wanted to have fun together some of the stuff that we've been artist for a long time before tomorrow's to. go. together to vogue and have fun can we would be a. bogota colombia sprawling capital has a population of over 1000000 it's full of contradictions open and liberal good home to aggressive machismo full of progressive creative projects but also

discrimination although the queer arts center house of tamara's requires security it provides a safe space for those who come here. we create spaces where we're safe from hostility the threats with thomas are very proud of what we have achieved in such a short time period i'm proud of who we are but i must get a safe spaces that we've established are not exclusive for others to us but on and . on me and the idea is that everything is in constant flow not just dance involving armor but also gender fluid gender but of the fluid in our bodies fluid in a latin american city fluid and nightlife like in america and. you dance that to them are as an important have for the scene to connect and run free. to. look.

at i believe the edgy beauty community of the moves in strongly separated and isolated spaces families when we're together we feel that things are changing that often but then we go out onto the street and the surroundings stay hostile. you know because i believe that our approach is a pretty radical. course of. the case on into theater and their campaigns and activism in music or part of. the. to eat. the. i don't see dances intertainment i think it can speak about complex issues in the world and their post-colonial of. you know the rise of the right the fascism while the history decolonization.

the cultural center of flora in bogota is an independent privately managed institution which supports artists through grants. manages the dance and performance section 3 now and i'll just commutes between new york and her hometown bogota and is especially interested in concepts of vulnerability and strength. you. can get with them again i'm interested in understanding our bodies which are confronted with a harsh reality in colombia in the midst of a political crisis a social crisis an economic crisis as well as an ecological crisis but we're going

to his work and his child and i can see this guy like his record or who can look at them again our bodies are exposed to all of these things to get there i mean especially here in colombia there's also a connection to magic or their hidden secret of powers and possibilities of exploring the world. as. a situation is that there's a lot of aggression i can see only that's not easy moving your body through such a metropolis simply get cast in that sharpens your senses. it gives you something like a $360.00 degree view. a war no 2nd want kids by. on the list and this isn't bad at all and i think there are other perspectives you can take to. for instance your list of mows me to rediscover my body through the city from the air and until i see your calls then there are a lot of those calls as it doesn't go through on this and i'm going to need to i think it's like regis covering the animal with them but. if there were.

absolutely taken my sense of smell. the amount of sense i think is just incredible . my sense of smell gives me so much information and then this allows me to perceive the city on a much more encompassing way that was on the bus we are. going to have brought this high season sensory awareness to dresden and was drawn to old video tapes. she used to dance congress 2019 as an experimental space and made new connections.

very precarious times and it's evident we will keep going when there is more limited resources or you feel that rather that your you are not in the center or that people are not appreciating your work or about seeing the worth so how to strengthen the collective voice so i think there's a kind of real like that if you would take what's the source of a kind of unguarded our shared or breakthrough thoughts in this restructuring element of this other kinds of ways of. bringing. people together and discussing. issues and making things more transparent to. the adults congress is a long lasting effect a celebration of the body mind soul and a connection that is sure to leave a mark. this was all
