I believe, everyone has the right to express themselves and enrich their lives through dance.
I aim to facilitate opportunities for people to experience dance as creators, performers and spectators, cultivating a sense of community and integrity, a place in which each person can find their own voice and their own place, regardless of age, background and abilities. A non-hierarchical social and cultural approach underpins this work.
DaLuzDance offer a variety of classes and workshops suitable for all ages and abilities ranging from professional dancers, adults, early years (babies and parents, 3-5 y olds), children, youth, older people and people with physical and learning disabilities.
The invitation is for you to find your level of challenge and comfort, according to your abilities.
Maria da Luz regularly teaches for Greenwich Dance, Trinity Laban and taugh at Tripspace and The Place.
Sessions range from technique class and workshops in contemporary, jazz, African Peoples Dances, choreography and devising based on Maria da Luz’ creative practices.
Proposals for classes, workshops or residencies are welcome.
