I CHOOSE MYSELF
a dynamic dance which symbolize
the value of sisterhood
and the depth of relationships
in the intricate pathways
of connections
The trio “I choose myself” created for the protest in dance “Our Bodies” by Creative Performances.
‘I choose myself” aims to generate conversation and spark growth in regards to toxic cultural forces that impair women’s lives, focusing on translating voices into movement from those who identify as or resonate with the qualities of being a woman, delivering a universal message of equity, diversity, inclusivity, and human connection.
This piece was ideated and created by Sara Pizzi & Aika Takeshima and choreographed in collaboration with dancers May Nakaya and Fautine Lavie.
