The Reconnection Project Video

This transformative production about connecting to indigenous roots through dance was choreographed by @jerawolfe. Jera produced this project in partnership with the National Ballet School and Dance Umbrella of Ontario. Our production team was deeply moved and inspired by this project.

For Jera, This project aims to deepen our collective knowledge of indigenous spirituality and teachings. Many Indigenous artists working in dance feel distanced from their cultural teachings through centuries of forced assimilation. Through this project, Jera hope’s to address this.
