Episode 66: Dance: is it art or sport?
Inspired by the recent UDA Nationals, on this week's podcast episode I revisit the age old question of whether dance is art or whether it is sport. You'll learn a bit about the world of university dance teams (full disclosure, I am by no means an expert when it comes to Dance Team dance) and why I think embracing dance as sport, at least in this case, is positive for the dance world. I also discuss ways we can provide better support for dancers who have goals and aspirations of dance team style dance.

I want to share Ballet BC’s upcoming program, Zenith – happening March 6,7, and 8 in Vancouver.
Featuring a world premiere by local Canadian choreographer Andrea Pena, the return of the masterful work PASSING from Johan Inger, and a new commission from Spanish choreographer Fernando Hernando Magadan – this program promises to be sensational.
