Nina and Bushka from GypsyRain plus Sienna and Mel from TribalZest joined Lisa from KurandaDance at the Kuranda Easter Festival on 7th April 2012.
Whilst Koahlition took a set break, we moved out into the grassy amphitheater, drawing a rather large crowd and being as colourful as Kuranda on its beautiful autumn day. It is inspirational to dance with my peers and teachers and bring together three tribes in one, dancing completely improvised is so nerve wracking, but also so intensely exciting. I hope to dance with a Kuranda tribe at the Spring Fair in October. It would be so great to have our own tribe and I hope some of the people who saw us dance today will also want to be a part of what we are building here.
After our performance in the main park, we wandered down the main street and did some busking. Just to share our improvised style of dance. We danced, sharing our repertoire from swords, to fans, to duets, tribal line and circle formations. It seemed appropriate that we finished with a Gypsy Caravan song. Then made our colourful presence at a local coffee shop for a well earned break. It was such a wonderful day, full of love, hope and happiness. Thank you to our tribal sisters, you have my gratitude and love.
