Sun ONLINE Oricha Dance Therapy w/ Kati

Service Description

SUNDAYS @ 11:30 AM - 1 PM PT! ZOOM Online Oricha Dance Therapy is a practice rooted in Cuban culture and inspired by you! This class brings empowerment and healing through the Afro-Cuban dance diaspora, with the objective of preserving this rich tradition, brought to Cuba during the 17th century. Students will learn a wide range of dances from different ethnic groups (Yoruba, Ararà, Congo, Franco Haitian). Through choreography this class stimulates awareness of the intimate relationship between rhythms, sacred songs, and dance. Awaken the self-body power, the collective power, and the spiritual power with dances of the Afro-Cuban diaspora. **PLEASE NOTE: This class is live-streamed in real time with a traditional structure of live percussion and in-person students traveling in lines across the floor, and is a faster-paced format with less focus on technique. We recommend online students be familiar with and versed in Afro-Cuban dance for this class. Online students will have a consistent view of a member of Kati's dance company leading them through steps and phrases, with Kati moving in and out of the frame for initial instruction. Additional details on movements are provided via the chat.**
