Stefanie Nelson Dancegroup to Present EVERYONE DANCE Festival
Everyone Dance series started as a joint project of Stefanie Nelson Dancegroup and AHRC New York, providing movement classes and performance opportunities for disabled adults. The collaboration resulted in a workshop course that allowed people with intellectual disabilities not only to learn dance but also to teach it – as was the case with Ervine Haskins, a young man from Crown Heights who discovered his calling as a dance teacher when given an opportunity to instruct others. His remarkable story is the subject of this mini-documentary: https://vimeo.com/671316925 and he will be one of the festival’s instructors.
