Cadyne Geary —

On Wednesday 16th May, our senior dance class was treated to a Zoom Online workshop hosted by Atamira Dance Company. The students were given the gift of choreographic tools to use for their upcoming choreographic assessments. Abbie Rogers (Ngā Tahu, Te Arawa) and Eddie Elliot (Ngāti Maniapoto) hosted the workshop. Two extremely talented Māori contemporary dancers and choreographers.

The students, using the concept of Mitimiti and Tūrangawaewae, started to develop some choreographic ideas supported by Abbie and Eddie. The workshop was incredible and students thoroughly enjoyed the experience.
