PARTICIPATION The workshop is open to all but has limited capacity with half of the spots reserved for our neighbours living in Wedding. If you are interested in joining us, kindly send an email with subject line "Dance Workshop" to workshop@savvy-contemporary.com with your name and in which neighbourhood you live.
With this workshop we invite you to explore the transformative power of movement as a holistic approach to healing. In this unique and immersive experience, participants will discover how movement can be a powerful tool for healing the body, mind, and spirit.
DORIANE MBENOUN is a Cameroonian-Belgian artistic performer and researcher. She expresses herself through dancing. Born in 1999 in Liège (Belgium) to Cameroonian parents, she is based in Berlin. Doriane is currently carrying out movement research of traditional African dances. Her project aims to document and gather archives on the essence of dance so that ancestral knowledge remains in the collective memory over generations and does not fall into oblivion.
