In Practice is a workshop series for continued education, peer to peer exchange, and knowledge sharing for dance teachers and leaders.

This workshop with PuSh Artist in Residence Majula Drammeh will explore how to create inclusive spaces that prioritize visibility, agency, and transparent power dynamics, while honoring the knowledge that everyone brings.
