Produced every two years Dance in Vancouver showcases Vancouver’s diverse and creative dance ecology. It is unique for its concentrated focus on promoting the province’s contemporary dance talent, not only to local audiences, but also to dance promoters and curators from across Canada and around the world.
Steady considers the act of rocking as a dance that can be performed by everybody. Regardless of size, scale, spatial orientation or energy exerted, the rock is a whole and joyous dance that can tap into the parasympathetic nervous system, encouraging the alleviation of pain and depression by triggering the brain to release endorphins. Steady houses an archive of scores, videos and instructions for rocking both submitted by the public and sourced privately. Visitors are invited to drop in and observe the creation process, and to submit their own ‘rocks’ to the archive.
