I am so excited about our Sept 21-23 performances. This evening of dances is a celebration of 20 years. There are so few dance companies that reach 20 and I am very thankful to our audiences, dancers, designers, supporters and our board for making sure that we continue to create quality work. </div>
<div class="p1">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
The works date back to 1999 and continue through today with a new premiere. I am just putting the finishing touches on my new work <b>Caverns</b>. This dance is a trio that explores the idea of recurring memories and the images that play, reset and ultimately replay again in our minds.<b> Caverns</b> deals with an individual who studies a past relationship. She questions her actions, relives them and arrives at a contemplative moment of confronting her own psyche. I have been very interested in how the trauma of past relations affects all future relations in our lives. They are the lessons learned that propel us forward or stunt our growth. </div>
<div class="p1">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
I can't wait to hear your thoughts on the show in person. I look forward to speaking with each of you in September. Sincerely, Dana</div>

<span class="notranslate">Sarah Halzack of Suffield, CT has been a dancer with <a href="http://www.dtsbco.com/" target="_blank">Dana Tai Soon Burgess & Company</a> for more than six years. In addition to being a dancer, she is also a journalist with <a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/" target="_blank">The Washington Post</a>. According to Sarah, it's a treat to know and work with the company's many talented collaborators, but the most enjoyable aspect of being in the company is the performance. "</span><span class="notranslate">The physicality of Dana's movement and the
characters he creates are, for me, the ultimate escape from reality," she said.</span><br />
<span class="notranslate"><br /></span>
<span class="notranslate">Over the years, she has danced in several of Dana's works but her favorites are "Tracings" and "Charlie Chan and The Mystery of Love." Sarah has never danced in "Tracings" herself, but what she enjoys most about watching it is how "clear a distillation it is of Dana's aesthetic. The dream-liking pacing, the
haunting projections, the crisp white set, the highly detailed and
gestural movement--these are all hallmarks of Dana's style, and they are
all extremely distinctive. I've never seen another dance like it, and
I'm sure I never will."</span><br />
<br />
<span class="notranslate">As for "Chan," Sarah think its brilliance lies in
how richly layered it is. "The work is as funny and self-deprecating as
it is heartbreaking, and it's laced with really clever irony. I think
it's one of the most honest dances Dana has ever made, and I think
that's why it resonates so deeply," she added.</span><br />
<br />
<span class="notranslate">When asked where she sees the DC dance community in 20 years, Sarah sees great promise from the influx of young dancers who have moved to the area in recent years. </span>"An infusion of new aesthetics
and new viewpoints will surely make the scene more vibrant," she said. For more information about Sarah, please read her <a href="http://dtsbco.com/bios/dancerbios.html" target="_blank">dancer biography</a>.<br />

<br />
<span class="notranslate">According to Felipe, </span><span class="notranslate">he is excited to learn movements that are different from what he is used to. "I love the idea to move my body from a
different way and be part of a an excellent group
of people with so much talent and love for the dance."</span><span class="notranslate"> </span><br />
<br />
<span class="notranslate">When asked where he sees himself or the DC dance community in 20 years, Felipe said he envisions himself teaching.

<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
</div>
It's hard to believe that today is our last full day in Jordan. Our last few days here have been so full that they've gone by unusually fast.<br />
<br />
On Saturday we came into Amman to teach workshops at the Princess Bosma Center for Youth. We taught two sessions; one for young women and one for young men. Most (if not all) of them had never studied modern dance, so we were introducing them to some of its most basic concepts. Unlike our classes at King's Academy, many of these students did not speak English, so we worked with a translator to communicate. We were all impressed by how gracious the kids were and how hard they worked at something that was entirely unfamiliar to them.<br />
<br />
We also got the chance to walk around Amman a little bit. We visited a neighborhood called Sofia, which was very Western and had many of the shops that we were familiar with from the states. Another neighborhood, El Hashmi, gave us more of a flavor of Jordanian culture. We tried some excellent pastries there called sambousek that were baked fresh in a small shop. It was just one of many delicious things we've had to eat on this trip.<br />
<br />
We'll send updates soon from our performance at the Zhakarev of Motion festival, which we were set to perform at on Monday evening.<br />

<div class="p1">
Today we took a brief break from performing and teaching to visit Petra, an ancient city that has been named one of the new seven Wonders of the World. </div>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
We all agreed it was an unforgettable experience. The site dates back to about 400 B.C., when it was originally inhabited by the Nabathean tribe, and then was later inhabited by the Byzantines and Romans. The detail and ingenuity of the construction of the tombs and monasteries were awe-inspiring; it's hard to imagine that our ancestors were able to build something so magnificent and efficient without the help of modern technology and tools. And because so many different peoples had made their homes there throughout history, the architecture is a singular mishmash of styles. </div>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
In addition to the man-made structures, the site is full of unique rock formations and deep canyons. In one area, our tour guide explained to us that the rift we were standing in was caused by an earthquake millions of years ago. Erosion had gradually widdled the canyon to its current width. Again, it's pretty wild to contemplate the depth of the history that exists in such a place. </div>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
It was a long drive out to the ruins and a long, hot walk to get through them, but I think all the dancers agreed it was worth the trek! </div>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
Tomorrow we are headed into Amman for the first time since we arrived. We are all looking forward to being in an urban environment and seeing what the city has to offer. </div>
<div class="p1">

It is quite an amazing facility built as a major complex and educational think tank in 2007. It is surrounded by vast green gardens in the middle of the desert. Every student speaks English, most are bilingual and the professors graduated from top tier schools and Ivy's in the the States. Today we presented a lecture demonstration focused on introducing modern dance to the students while touching upon the cross disciplinary effects of creativity, as well as how art can build a positive self-identity. Because so many students are from all over the world, identity whether it is tribal or national or familial seems hyphenated. Everyone somehow belongs to two or more groups. The first question after our showing came from a freshman who asked, regarding the Palestinian crisis, if dance could be used to express and heal this situation. I explained that many choreographers do focus specific works over their careers on political situations in order to voice the hope for resolution. He was quite brave to want to know how art can create change in the world.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica;"> </span>dtsbcohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12362560678023922991noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6784537064413308969.post-90276229524515469562012-05-03T22:54:00.000-04:002012-05-03T22:54:41.289-04:00Dancer Profile: Tati Valle-Riestra<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

<br />
Dana writes:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Earlier this week, I was among a handful of local leaders who met with D.C. Council member Marion Barry about bigoted comments he made about Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders; first he talked about “dirty” Asian-owned carryouts and on Monday Filipino nurses were the objects of his spewing. These statements come on the eve of Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month.<br />
<br />
As a fourth generation Korean-American and a choreographer whose family moved to the U.S. in 1903 as indentured plantation workers for the sugar and pineapple plantations of Oahu, Hawaii, I have spent the past two decades creating art that addresses issues of identity.<br />
<br />
In my testimony before Barry and the others who were gathered at the District Building I recalled the long line of troubling historical events that led us to this moment in time.</blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
For example, I reminded them that, in 1882, the federal Chinese Exclusion Act permitted the U.S. to suspend Chinese immigration. The ban wasn’t repealed until 1943. I described how President Franklin Roosevelt’s 1942 Executive Order 9066 forced the relocation of Japanese Americans to internment camps, and how the Supreme Court’s shameful confirmation of that discrimination destroyed many lives and livelihoods for decades.<br />
<br />
I reminded the gathering of the brutal beating death in 1982 of Chinese auto worker Vincent Chin in Michigan after layoffs in Detroit's automotive industry were attributed to the increasing market share of Japanese automakers. And I described the scene in 1992 when Los Angeles riots hit Koreatown harder than any other part of the city. Police were forced out by rioters, many Koreans were attacked and beaten and countless businesses were looted and burned. To this day, I’m haunted by memories of those 20-year-old images.<br />
<br />
Mr. Barry’s recent comments add a new chapter to our country’s long and painful history of bigotry against Asian Americans. When people attack Asian Americans – whether physically or verbally – or any minority group, for that matter, the entire community suffers. I long for the day when we can look beyond color boundaries and start to understand diversity and inclusion as an American standard which enlivens our educational system, our economy and our community and is a basic fiber of our multi-faceted American tapestry.<br />
<br />
Mr. Barry listened as I provided the historical context for his hurtful comments. Then, to my surprise, he blamed the press for his hateful words. I had a sense that an apology was the furthest thing from his mind.<br />
<br />
As I left the District Building, a faraway memory crossed my mind. I recalled a six year old and his mother who were walking down the street when a stranger called out to her: “Tokyo Rose go home.” That six year old was me. It was hurtful then, and it is hurtful now.<br />
<br />
I am more convinced now than I was earlier in the week: the best and most appropriate response is Mr. Barry's immediate resignation.</blockquote>
