As part of his exhibition Six Steps, artist Do Phan Hoi is organizing a roundtable discussion centred on a key issue at the heart of street dance culture:
The importance of collective experience and the exchange of knowledge within communities.
Through the journeys of Handy “HYA” Yacinthe and Natasha “TASH” Jean-Bart, both of whom have served as judges at JUSTE DEBOUT, a major street dance event, the discussion will broadly explore the dynamics of transmission, sharing, and learning that shape street dance communities.
Guests:

Natasha “TASH” Jean-Bart
