Queer Dance Workshops are a chance for queer folks of all identities and experiences to connect through dance. Featuring a rotating roster of teachers and dance styles, these workshops are a time to simply dance around joyfully with other queer people. These special workshops will be held outside near Egleston Square in Jamaica Plain.
Our June workshop will feature Pampi sharing abunDANCE, a meditative dance and song practice for care and community in the face of the horrors of our world and Circe Rowan with rainbow ribbons, sharing prop work and flow art with us!
Pampi is an organizer and mover creating change from the local to global scale. Experience some of their work on instagram here.
Circe Rowan is a Boston-based artist working in such diverse disciplines as film, theater, dance, and circus arts. Working both solo and in collaboration with organizations like Breaking Light Productions, ANIKAYA, Yosi Karahasi Flamenco, and Monkeyhouse Dance, she is a veteran of the 2022 aMaSsiT cohort, and a recipient of a Mass Cultural Council artist grant in 2023. When not on stage, she is kept occupied building props and creating costumes.

Exact location details will be sent to registrants. Some parking is available. It is about a 10 minute walk from Stony Brook on the Orange Line and near bus stops for busses 42, 22, 44, and 29.
There is a question about access needs in registration. In particular, if you need ASL interpretation please note it in your rsvp or email me at jotrolldance@gmail.com as it is often easier to get interpretation with a confirmed need. Unfortunately, I will need at least a week's notice to ensure interpretation.
Workshops are free, but please consider donating (no more than $20) to help pay our wonderful teachers.
