School For Contemporary Dance And Thought

<p>Shakia The Key is a newly established project-based dance company based in Western Massachusetts that focuses on street dance styles through performance and education. During this summer intensive, Shakia Barron will be joined by professional collaborators on her newest work, the week ends with a performance. Genesis is doubly significant–a dance work and a launching point. This project will serve as the beginning of Shakia The Key, a project-based dance company. After choreographing and directing 50+ dance works for various organizations and educational institutions, Shakia Barron is excited to create with a revolving group of professional dancers to further develop her work as it centers Hip-Hop and other street dance forms to build expansive knowledge, understanding, and love. Genesis will premiere in September 2022, platforming Barron’s artistic values of collaboration and community as a means to generate possibilities for embodied connection, between performers and audience members, investing in the generation of kinesthetic empathy. ​These classes are open to all levels.</p><p>Shakia Barron will be joined by her collaborators Laura Osterhaus Rosenstone, Allana Scudder, Dashawn Davis, Nate Odell, Miranda Lawson, Angelica Polk, and Jesmyda Viyano. </p>
