What are your thoughts about the #metoo movement in Latin Dance. WE THINK ITS HIGH TIME THIS COMES TO LIGHT. grooming is real, abuse is prevalent. #notjustchisme

You may not be able to see who the best dancers are… you may have to feel the best dancers. They’re the ones creating a safe no frills space for us to express ourselves

Dancing alone in your kitchen is as valuable to society as competing and performing

when we connect with ourselves before our dance partners, we are more able to attune to the dance! #dancesky

Dance spaces are radical community mutual aid. They need to be safe and welcome to all.
