Dance Is Not a Luxury with Camille Barton

In this episode I talk to Camille Barton, embodiment researcher, artist and activist about how from beginnings in ballet they have taken to seeking what feels good in thier body and learnt that this has more to do with spirals and circles than straight lines. We share our love of BASS music and Camille discusses the body as a channel for both joy and grief, while Robyn and Luca reflect on creating the spaces we want to see in the world. In this weeks geek out I check out ‘I love myself when I am dancing and carrying on: refiguring the agency of black women’s creative expression in Jamaican Dancehall culture' by Bibi Bakare-Yusuf, how could I resist a title like that?!
