Abstract

Since 2015, I have been working as a dancer, choreographer, and facilitator for All Bodies Dance Project (ABDP), a Canadian “integrated dance” project that brings together a diverse group of dancers. In this article I contextualize “integrated dance”, a term that will be problematized, and then I will describe in-depth my experience as a dancer in Translations, a contemporary dance piece for the non-visual senses created by All Bodies Dance Project in partnership with VocalEye, a live descriptive service for the blind.
