The Journey

This movement workshop is designed to support BIPOC individuals in connecting with their bodies. Facilitated by Dazaun Soleyn, these sessions invite creative self-expression and embodied practices to safely explore generational trauma through the use of social, choreographic and abstract dance.

Each workshop begins with meditation, journaling, and improvisational dance sessions that are later used towards the creation of abstract choreography that delve into the complexities of family, history, cultural identity, and personal experiences. The workshop will close with reflections and a heartfelt discussion that rediscovers connections between participants' movements and their generational narrative.

Drawing from Dazaun's ongoing creative work, the workshop emphasizes the relationship between healing and spiritual connection within the African Diaspora. Together as a community, we collaboratively weave storytelling through movement, circling back to the question: How can art contribute to the healing of the BIPOC Body?
