CARNIVAL NOV 08Piece: "I Am Woman" Choreographer: Shyrelle Kalilikane Dancers: Stacey, Lizzie, Anna, Tatiana, Emily, Shyrelle, Yvonne, Shaina, Carolina, Tiffany, Ama, and Alyssa.
On November 11th, 2008 I was a guest choreographer at CARNIVAL: The Choreographer's Ball. I did a piece fused with Hip hop, street jazz, and contemporary. My theme was an all woman piece entitled "I Am Woman". I used three chairs, and 3 red, heart-shaped balloons for my contemporary piece, which consisted of three dancers dressed in black. I also had 9 Hip hop/Street Jazz dancers in my piece as well dressed in baggy jeans, boots, flannel, and black vests. All of the dancers were female, and empowering. It was such a great project to get ahold of, and i'm soo thankful that I got to work with these wonderful ladies. Its such an inspiration to see your work placed on other bodies. To see the end product was just remarkable. I hope to do another piece for the carnival in April 09. For more footage and photos, please stay tuned.
