Vamos a Cuba!

Tap Dance Artist Andrea Alvergue and I are traveling to Cuba!

The two-week trip is part of her research project RHYTHM FLOW:
Andrea believes that music and dance should not be studied separately and always aims to explore ways of combining the two elements. 
She is investigating the history of dance and music in Afro Cuban culture and using the clave, a 2-bar syncopated percussive phrase, as a guide to create her own movement vocabulary. 
I'm accompanying her and producing a short documentary of the trip.
We will start in Havanna and participate in the Afro Cuban Dance Festival. After that, we travel to Matanzas searching for inspiration and teachings of Los Muñequitos de Matanzas.
I think we'll swing by the beach, as well :)

I'm hyped and can't wait to explore new territories of the 
rhythm universe and the rich cultural heritage of Cuba. 

Thank you Andrea for taking me along.

Funding approval!

TAP SCRIPT is a theoretical exploration of the cinematic potential of tap dance and identifies the essential tools for successful visualization of contemporary tap dance approaches in film. The analysis considers not only content and visual design but also the social and cultural environment in which classic dance films were created. 

The ultimate aim is to reveal how contemporary tap dance can make it back to the screen and develop a concrete concept for a dance film project in 2024. The research, reflection, and planning phases will be conducted in collaboration with the Leipzig film collective verflimmert, and discussions will be held with relevant historians.

In the end, I hope to gain knowledge about the cinematic potential of tap, personal development as a dancer, choreographer, and producer, and contribute to the revitalization of tap dance in contemporary culture.

Recap: Workshop
Blue Tap Studio, Berlin

Last weekend, we had an amazing time dancing and practicing together at Blue Tap Studios in Berlin. Anina Krüger has been running the infamous Tap Studio since the late 90s, and it was so cool to reconnect with the Berlin Tap dancers and hear about Anina's experiences running the place. She recently moved the studio to the hip neighborhood of Friedrichshain, and it was such a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Everyone there was kind, funny, engaged, and generous.

I'm grateful for the inspiring weekend we spent together connecting, practicing, and sharing. And the best part? It's just an hour from Leipzig, so I'll definitely be visiting more often!

Big up and good vibes to the Blue Tap Squad in Berlin!

Swing you soon.
