 Workshop Dance Beyond Borders site

Join Dance Beyond Borders for a three day immersive workshop with the choreographers Julienne Schembri and Deborah Falzon, exploring the theme of Home through Movement, Dance and Sharing of Stories. Over 3 days, we will delve into the relationship between personal and social perspectives of Home; from our personal memories to the representation of Home in the Media.

Everyone is welcome to participate in this community experience, regardless of your origin or current residence. Our goal is to create a space that includes people from different cultures and backgrounds to have various perspectives informing our inquiry.

Together, we will embark on a journey of connection, engage in discussions, movement practices, play and dancing. Each activity will seek to explore what we share about our past, discuss our concerns in the present and collectively dream about our desired futures.

As narratives of displacement and the construction of geographical borders are confronted, you will be encouraged to question overlooked aspects of the same stories, amplify personal narratives, and challenge prevailing narratives. Ultimately, the goal is to decolonize storytelling and integrate personal experiences into shared narratives.

Join Dance Beyond Borders in celebrating the richness of our stories and striving for a more inclusive and authentic portrayal of home.
