ALL-AGES | ALL-ABILITY LEVELS | MOVEMENT WORKSHOP

Danza Orgánica will be offering a public workshop, hosted by The Dance Hall, as part of their Dance for Social JusticeTM workshop series. Founded in 2014, the Dance for Social JusticeTM (DSJ) workshop grew out of Mar Parrilla’s desire to use dance as a tool for social change. While she was teaching dance in urban settings, she organically provided her students with dance composition tools with which they explored themselves and their connection to communities.

The DSJ curriculum is informed by Paulo Freire’s philosophy of education as expressed in Pedagogy of the Oppressed, her studies on dance composition, and her experience as a performer and choreographer in the diaspora.

*This performance is funded in part by the New England States Touring program of the New England Foundation for the Arts, made possible with funding from the National Endowment for the Arts Regional Touring Program and the six New England state arts agencies.
