Artistic Director's Message




 
Dear Friends, Family, Colleagues, Collaborators and Fellow Dancers,
 
I hope this finds you well. Thank you for choosing to receive this letter and stay with me. Hopefully you are receiving the right version and in the right language. If not, please correct your preferences.  You can unsubscribe yourself or/and change the language or city you prefer.
 
MamaDances and spring are in full embrace. The structural transformation from old to new is underway and will be complete by the fall.  There are plenty of opportunities to get involved: I need board members and community coordinators and this summer will be the first Teachers Certification Course.

Most Spring Sessions have begun in Montreal and Toronto. In Toronto, The Annex classes will begin this week on Fridays and a new class is developing in the Danforth/Chester. We will also continue to take registration for our Saturday Parent Child Class at Artscape.

In Montreal, a new Mom and Baby class is starting at Georges Vanier Cultural Centre in St Henri. Due to the high demand for our Saturday morning Parent Child Class on Plateau Mont-Royal, an additional class has been added to the schedule. The prenatal dance exploration lab will be starting this May on Thursdays.
 
May 11-21 I will be teaching a two-week Skinner Releasing Technique Intensive at Studio 303. This is an extraordinary dance practice that continues to inspire and motivate me physically, spiritually, emotionally and intellectually every day. Please join me there.
 
For the summer Arrondissement du Plateau-Mont-Royal has made possible, a free family dance program at Park Villeneuve on Tuesday afternoons. I hope we  can find a similar partner in Toronto. Other than that, MamaDances will be closed. Our full program with additional partners will resume in the fall.
 
Enjoy!
