on International Dance Day: Dance is the international language of connecting with others and the world without words. I encourage others to continue to feel inspired in this time either through emotions, a life lesson or by one of your favourite artists. Know that in these times we can still create and find ways to. Let s continue to take risks and face our fears in this virtual world and push our art for others to learn and see.
Here s a dancer Reequal wants you to know about: Dawn Ward. She is the leader and choreographer of Holland College Dance Team. We share a lot of similarities with our dance styles and we both are from the Bahamas. But she is a phenomenal educator, choreographer, singer, dancer and actress.

Black History Month is being celebrated across the country with the theme “The Future is Now.”
“February is Black History Month,” said Mayor Allan Thompson. “It is an opportunity for all Canadians to learn about the many contributions that Black Canadians and their communities have made to this country.”
The month is to celebrate the achievements, contributions and the communities of Black Canadians, in both the past and the present. Black History Month was first recognized in Canada in 1979 after the Ontario Black History Society petitioned Toronto to designate February as such.
Black History Month was officially recognized in all of Canada in 1995 by the House of Commons.
