'Researching dance ideas in a cultural context and giving something back'

Rosa Shreeves travelled to Guatemala to continue her dance project. "Each year since 2006 I have visited Guatemala for a month at a time, researching dance ideas in the context of the culture and giving something back in terms of performances and workshops to the community. I have worked particularly with the Nahual Foundation, a voluntary indigenous organization based in Antigua which aims to empower local people in a variety of ways. This project grows from our continuing collaboration and belief in the value of the creative arts in the process of change."
