DanceLink and 365 Foundation Inc. are thrilled to present a one-of-a-kind event, "The Body Keeps the Score: Dancing with Trauma and Recovery."
"The Body Keeps the Score" first premiered in 2018 and is inspired by Bessel van der Kolk's renowned text. Artistic Director Sarah Carlson of DanceLink works alongside composer Vernon J. Mobley to explore how trauma must be addressed on an individual body level before broader communal change can occur.
"This is a transformative experience that challenges us to confront our own traumas to heal and grow," said Natalie Venezia, Executive Director of 365 Foundation Inc.
Through movement, music, and text, the performance unpacks how Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) can fragment one's sense of connection to present reality. By reclaiming awareness through breath and physical sensations, healing becomes possible.
After the gallery performance, we invite you to a post-show discussion. This is your opportunity to delve deeper into the performance's central themes and contribute to promoting community resources for further support.
