COUNTING DOWN ⏳⏳⏳

Next week, Friday, 3rd of December at 8:30pm the WAVE is coming!

WAVE is a fresh outlook on stage performance, with dance and music in the spotlight.

WAVE combines elements of light, sound, storytelling and movement. We reunited over 20 artists, including musicians, DJs and dancers, to create a thrilling performance showcasing the talent of Irish artistic community.

Come witness this spectacle with us, the WAVE that we have decided to evoke.

WAVE started with a mutual dream to create a dance show, where we could showcase the potential of the many talented people that crossed our path in Ireland.

We came to Ireland looking for a place to call home...and we found it in our community.

So emotional getting close to it that I will try to stick with the main information now cus I need some time to write, cry & laugh altogether 🙏🏼❤‍🔥 THANK YOU, all of you. Including amazing dance artists that weren't able to join us this time.

Gratitude for all sharings, exchanges and for the welcoming & loving community that we built (against all the odds) in the past four years. We reclaimed our space! Would be much harder to navigate as a migrant in Ireland without our dance family, love you!

Breaking Codes: Music & Dance show by Go Dance for Change platform and collaborators in association with Noise Music from 9pm-10:30pm at the Cultural Quarter Stage at /.

Bringing together more than 25 performers celebrating Urban & Street Dances from around the world for a vibrant cross-cultural presentation.

Presenting singers & dance artists of Hip Hop, Dancehall, Afro Dance, Brazilian Funk, Urban Dance, Afro-Brazilian Dance, Commercial Dance, Locking & Indian Dance.

Breaking Codes - self-explanatory, is a celebration of the transformative power of dance & music to unite people, challenge dominant hierarchies and collectively build the kind of society we want to live in. Resisting domination and control, dancing and the communities it builds can nurture space to build power from below, allowing for meaningful integration and collective actions.

No booking required, just show up and enjoy our social spaces at Culture Night🔥

After party from 11:30pm at Natives: A Black Canvas x Top 8 Production in the Sugar Club. Always a craic to work w/ & , so expect the best of this. Details to follow.

With Instagram page taken down and all our portfolio wiped out in March (probably due to music copyright or more so to be bothering the structures) it made me take a forced break and accept that being out of social media doesn't mean that the platform does not exist. Peers, partners and collaborators is being great still produce and curate work with you in the real world while Go Dance For Change online platform takes it shape and get reimagined in the world.
