Rhythm, water and movement

Go with the flow and move with the music.

Be enchanted by the rhythm and flow of water in this dynamic performance as these talented performers bring together music, movement and visual storytelling.

Through an engaging blend of percussion, soundscapes, and contemporary dance, students explore how rhythm and movement can reflect the natural world.

As the performers respond to each other in real time, students learn to listen deeply, interpret sound through movement, and express themselves through their own bodies. This highly immersive show encourages students to connect rhythm and motion, sparking new ways of thinking about music, dance and self-expression.
