Join us for an illuminating interview series exploring issues around diversity and inclusion in dance. This series is essential education for dance teachers wishing to make their classes more diverse, welcoming, inclusive, and accessible. As well as increasing your student pool, this makes the magic and healing powers of dance available to more people, which is a truly special thing.
This interview features Kamrah Raqs and discussed gender diversity and inclusion in dance. We discuss everything you could want to know to attract and create safe spaces for gender diverse students, including - what does it mean to be trans or non-binary? What about bellydance as a 'woman's dance'? How do we deal with changing/costuming/choreography? And my personal favourite- what is a FART?
If you are a dance teacher or even interested in this topic, this is ESSENTIAL viewing to educate yourself further on issues of gender diversity and inclusivity.
