On today’s episode we have professor Emerita of Indiana State University, Iris Rosa Santiago. She shares her wisdom from 43 years of running the African American Dance Company as well as starting a dance studio and company in her retirement! Iris has studied and taught dance all over the world and talks to us about expanding creative vocabulary, getting brave, and humbling ourselves. We also talk about how dance can help us literally and figuratively move through transitions.
