Jhalak Dance Company presents their latest dance performance at Studio 909 on April 20, 2024 at 7pm. “Bodies. Physique. Mind. Soul. Flesh. Love.” explores temporality, embodied perception, and the physical form of presence in the natural and modern world. During the performance engagement the dancers will shine as they explore questions about what it means to be human today and how we see, feel, and think about the body.

Highlighted within the production are several new and powerful dances. “The Past and the Future are in the Present” explores connection, a sense of place, and collective experiences through athletic contemporary dance in motion. “Spiral: Journey of the Soul” is a deeply investigative movement play about love, the energy of flow, and the language of bodies that touch. The performance embraces the body as a source of wisdom past and present and explores how dance shapes our view of the human form.

Featured performers include company members and local artists Sami L.A. Akuna, Tina Chan, Cy Higashi, Lance Sabado, and Katelyn Wyatt, as well as the rising stars of the second company JDC 2.0 including Hannah Archer, Krystian Leialoha Fernandez, Nani Marcos, Julian Myrland, and Ariana Smith.
