Dance Workshop with Amrita Hepi

Friday, September 21  |  3:00 - 5:00 pm  |  free  |  UVA Culbreth Stage

This workshop focuses on how to acknowledge the land you are on while dancing. It will include a discussion about cultural dance and how dance is created collaboratively, tuition in phrasing and gestures, and peer presentation. It is open to anyone, regardless of dance experience. 

Amrita Hepi is an award winning choreographer and dancer with Bundjulung (Australia) and Ngapuhi (New Zealand) Indigenous heritage. Her mission as an artist is to push the barriers of intersectionality and make work that garners multiple access points through allegories. Her practice at present is interested in the perpetuation of culture, tradition 

and a ‘decolonial imagination.'
