Patricia Anderson of Rochester is a choral director who teaches voice. She is excited about a forthcoming concert by Resounding Voices Chorus, “a wonderful organization that is part of a growing worldwide movement to improve the lives of people living with some sort of dementia and with their support partners through musical participation.” She explains that artistic director Suzy Johnson ”gets a wonderful mix of music … and then she arranges them so that they really fit very well with the people that are singing in the choir.” The concert is called “Rain or Shine” and will take place May 14 at Calvary Evangelical Free Church in Rochester. Louise Robinson of Minneapolis has a career managing professional dance companies in Minnesota. “I grew up in Winona in the 60s and never imagined finding a connection with the South Indian dance form of Bharatanatyam,” she says. “But years ago, my paths crossed with Ranee Ramaswamy, artistic director of Ragamala Dance here locally, and I have been captivated by the form ever since.”  Don't see video? Click here Saturday the Fitzgerald Theater will host Ragamala's Dance Company's “guru” (as they describe her on their website), Indian dancer and choreographer Alarmel Valli. “Miss Valli's style of Bharatanatyam is particularly emotional in its intentions and fluid in its movement style,” Robinson says. “Her performances are captivating, and that's not easy to command a stage for an entire evening as a solo performance. But that's her forte.”

Our work has always been rooted in unveiling inequity and celebrating with radical joy in the face of adversity. We are not any one thing to serve to satisfy white centered ideology. We are not inferior in our Bollywood, in our abstract work, on stage, or in a cypher. We are a brown and black global majority dance company, and our blood is blue. -Achinta S. McDaniel, Blue13 Dance CompanyIndian dance is not one thing. And Blue13 Dance Company based out of Los Angeles is an exemplary example of this through their beautiful blend of art, dance, movement and more. I had a wonderful conversation with critically acclaimed artist Achinta S. McDaniel, founder and artistic director of Blue13 Dance Company as she and her artists are in preparation for two events you don't want to miss if you are in the Greater Los Angeles area. One is a fun Bollywood experience in https://www.musiccenter.org/tickets/events-by-the-music-center/dancedtla/ (Downtown Los Angeles at The Music Center) on Friday, September 10th from 7pm-11pm, and the second one is an audience immersive, site specific, outdoor Contemporary and Bollywood Dance spectacular called Shaadi (Hindi for wedding) that is sure to be one of the most memorable events that you can attend. Shaadi is happening on Friday, September 17th and Saturday, September 18th at the Heritage Square Museum. More about Achinta S. McDaniel:New Girl, Speechless with Minnie Driver, DJ Snake, The Amazing Race. Walt Disney World, Heineken, and Snapple to name a few. Household names and they all have something in common. The creative work of my guest today, Achinta McDaniel. In addition, the following words further describe this acclaimed artist: words Prolific. Powerful. A pioneer. Achinta S. McDaniel, choreographer, performer, educator and artistic director of Blue13 Dance Company based out of Los Angeles. She draws from techniques including Bhangra, Kathak, and Bollywood, Hip Hop, ballet, jazz, tap, and modern dance, to create spectacular and theatrical dance. She is known for her experimentation with international styles and for inventive staging of her signature contemporary Indian forms. Her choreography is highly dramatic and a real reflection of her upbringing: Eastern and Western, exotic, mysterious, wild, rebellious and unconventional. McDaniel's work is fearless and inventive, ever-exploring the boundaries of contemporary dance as a first-generation Indian woman. A few takeaways from our conversation:Defining that dance, movement and certain forms don't have to fit into the stereotypical European standards that have been heavily emphasized Not only honoring process in our creative works, but the importance of the people involved Cultivating a brave space for exploration and expression so that it can also be a safe space Self-evaluation for your mission and asking the difficult questions of how you represent yourself and your artistry Other episodes of interest:https://open.spotify.com/episode/1Akwy1KkKAuN5Cgv7lj6SH?si=AdNho-2MS8qIIS-PrXM7Gw&dl_branch=1 (How An Experiment Became and Experience: The Rise of The Leela Dance Collective) https://open.spotify.com/episode/67hUU8CwSmVah67n2ZfcD5?si=v8kWT4ngSWmYjEwMpUCuWg&dl_branch=1 (Being Present and Honoring Your Path to Creativity) https://open.spotify.com/episode/3JAajtkAB8CCDU6mF8cdT9?si=CtdFRuh3QMisk-Xj1URc5Q&dl_branch=1 (Silver Linings in a Pandemic) Links from this session:https://blue13dance.com (Blue13 Dance Company) https://www.musiccenter.org/tickets/events-by-the-music-center/dancedtla/ (Dance DTLA) https://heritagesquare.org/events/calendar/blue13-dance-company-presents-an-immersive-dance-event (Heritage Square Museum Event Details) https://thewallis.org (The Wallis) https://www.kusc.org/culture/arts-alive-blog/achinta-mcdaniel-blue13/ (KUSC Radio Interview with Achinta S.

Hello friends! Hope everyone is doing well. In this Episode of The Dance Sessions Pod., we will discover some information about Dance History associated with the peoples of early America, the American Indians. I have the greatest respect for all the tribes as they are recognized in history and present day. Since I am by no means a historian, this episode is strictly as fact based as I could make it using the following sources: D, Michael, and Trisha Howson. “Native American Dances .” Legends of America, Kathy Weiser/Legends of America, 2020, www.legendsofamerica.com/na-dances/. Mason. “Dance (Pages. 151-154).” Encyclopedia of North American Indians, by Frederick E. Hoxie, Houghton Mifflin, 1996, pp. 151–154. I hope you all can take something away from the many cultures and dance traditions. Each tribe is so uniquely different in their beliefs and it fueled their dance traditions and how they portrayed symbolism in their art. Enjoy this semi-dive into American Indian culture! Visit the places I have listed to dive even deeper into these amazing cultures. -Chris

This podcast explores the artistry of Sreyashi Dey's interpretations of the Mahabharata through the Odissi style of Classical Indian Dance. Dey sought to restory the life of Hidimba, a minor female character in the Mahabharata who is marginalized within structures of ethnic and class power. Alongside this artistic narrative, we explore Vrinda Dalmiya's exploration of feminist care ethics and the storied contrast between masculine order and principle against the vulnerable, embodied, and contextually situated ethic of care. Our exploration of care and restorying deepens our notions of care and narrative within peace work.

She travels within India and abroad to share this vision of Dance not just for dancers but for all allied disciplines like Design, Architecture, Film & Animation, deconstructing classical Indian Dance to reveal its encyclopedic form that is steeped in principles of Indian thought & philosophy(Yoga) Do write to us your thoughts about the episode DM us on Instagram @eplogmedia

Devika has been a finalist for the Bowness Photography Prize 2015 and 2018, the Nillumbik Prize for her video pieces in 2016 and 2018, and the Macquarie Digital Portrait Award, screening her video piece An Arctic Time Signatureat the National Portrait Gallery in ACT, 2015.
