On May 28, celebrate the power of dance from coast-to-coast-to-coast with NBS Sharing Dance Day 2021!
The universal language of dance has the unique ability to bring together people of all ages and abilities, in communities across the country, through a mutual love of movement. That’s why, on May 28 at 12:30pm ET, Canada’s National Ballet School (NBS) will host its 2021 Sharing Dance Day event as a digital broadcast across Canada. NBS’ annual Sharing Dance Day events have become a joyful symbol and celebration of connectedness and community through dance, from coast-to-coast-to-coast, engaging more than 123,000 people in the last five years.
“This past year has underscored the enduring power of dance, and just how much we need this art form to flourish as individuals and celebrate as communities,” says Mavis Staines, Artistic Director and CEO at Canada’s National Ballet School. “Despite ongoing public health challenges and continued need for physical distancing in many parts of Canada, I believe the digital format of our event will reinforce the strength we derive from our sense of community, particularly during times of hardship.”
NBS Sharing Dance Day 2021 will feature workshops in a diversity of dance styles—get ready to dance along! The broadcast will also premiere a special collaborative collage video featuring the NBS Sharing Dance Choreography and video submissions from dancers across the country.
