How to Convey Dance To Those Without Sight ?





Hashimoto Mana, professional dancer and choreographer was leading a hands-on workshop that enables visually impaired students to experience dance.


At a workshop Hashimoto was surrounded by four students from the Filomen M. D’Agostino Greenberg Music School, a community school for the blind and visually impaired that’s near Lincoln Center. 




They followed her movements with their hands: One touched her belly. Another had a hand on Hashimoto’s head, and still another ran fingers along Hashimoto’s outstretched arm as she began a long, low backbend. 

She was the head mechanic, and her body was the engines.

Bolivia Trip

     I went to Bolivia with my mother. my cousin and my grandmother three years ago. We went to see my family.      We arrived at 6 am and my uncle came to wait for us in his car. When we arrived at the house, I went to wake up to my brother. He was very happy to see me.      My family had prepared a welcome party in a bowling.
