TEDxAmsterdam Women

2017

Performance during TEDxAmsterdamWomen event at the Tropenmuseum, Amsterdam

Dancers: Serano Pinas, Emma Evelein, Ruben Sanchez, Alessio Reedijk, Jori Meijer

‘‘Initially brought together by Emma for a video project, the group’s style is characterized by pure, fast yet flowing movements with a raw intensity. Honesty and contact melt into one. While a group, each artist also works independently, in other groups, projects, children’s productions, bands and musicals, and as singers and choreographers. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx’’
