Dance Workshops with Rosangela Silvestre



We are delighted to host international instructor Rosangela Silvestre, straight from Brazil to Edmonton and Calgary! 

Hosting Rosangela Silvestre is an honor and an opportunity to share her process of discovering our connection with the unique expression of nature through dance! Rosangela is the creator of the Silvestre Technique--a dance technique which builds on the three Triangles of Inspiration, Expression, and Balance in the body. 

Join us on a journey with Silvestre as we connect to the natural world through exploration of the four elements (earth, water, air fire), and body movement connected to the sacred symbology of the Orixá as an African Tradition in Brazil.


Rosangela Silvestre - Choreographer, instructor, dancer and creator of the Silvestre Dance Technique. Rosangela is a native of Salvador, Bahia, Brazil, where she graduated with a Bachelor's Degree in Dance and post-graduated specializing in choreography, achieving her degree from the Federal University of Bahia (UFBA).
