Join Ballet d'Jèrri for a unique, semi-immersive dance performance at Jersey's iconic Watersplash on Friday 30th and Saturday 31st August 2024.
Choreographer Yamuna Kyamo Huygen collaborates with musical duo Minihi to present Nova Movando, a dance piece inspired by the relaxed vibes of the surf club. The event seamlessly blends dance with a social night out, offering guests the chance to mingle, enjoy drinks, and dance, all while experiencing live performances.
Nova Movando translates to "New Movement" in Esperanto, highlighting dance as a universal language of emotion. The performance explores the relationship between colours and emotions, inviting the audience to witness and participate in this artistic expression.
