April 24 at 12 noon
Dancers' Group is pleased to announce the return of Bay Area Dance Week (BADW), the beloved 10-day celebration of dance and community, April 24 to May 3, at locations throughout the Bay Area. Last year's Festival drew 21,000 attendees across 161 events, highlighting the region's vibrant dance scene. This year BADW promises an equally dynamic lineup of workshops, performances, open rehearsals, and classes-all free and open to the public. "For 28 years, the Bay Area Dance Week festival has been celebrating the artistry, diversity and joy of the San Francisco Bay Area with tons of exciting and free dance events for the whole family," says Wayne Hazzard, Executive Director of Dancers' Group.
The festival kicks off with One Dance at 12 pm on Friday, April 24 at Jesse Square supported by the Yerba Buena Gardens Festival. Always a crowd favorite, One Dance is a participatory group dance and signature highlight of the festival led since 2012 by Rhythm & Motion's Artistic Director Dudley Flores. Participants can learn the moves beforehand by visiting dancersgroup.org/badw/. "Anyone can learn One Dance," says Flores. "It's what I love about this event; it really is for everyone."
Some of those events include: Dancing in the Park SF with Mark Foehringer Dance Project, What's Up!?! UpSwing Aerial Dance and student performance, LOVING THE AIR, an apparatus-based dance class with Jo Kreiter/FLYAWAY PRODUCTIONS, a Bhangra fundamental class with Rooted Bhangra, Mexican Folkloric, K-Pop, and international folk dance, Indian classical, and Bollywood performances and classes at Downtown Dance! in Fremont, and beginner folklorico basics class at Florecer Dance Studios in San Jose. More details on the festival will be announced at the end of March and throughout April.
