Episode 9: Talking with Jack Gray of Atamira Dance Company

I had the pleasure of talking to Jack Gray of Atamira Dance Company.A few weeks ago, I saw the Atamira Dance Company Perform at the Joyce Theatre in New York City. The show was stunning, I had never seen anything like it before, and I was so intrigued to learn more about the company, the choreographic process, and the Māori Culture. My conversation with Jack Gray was pretty life changing. I uncovered a new way of thinking and I am so excited to share this episode with you!The Atamira Dance Company is the leading creator and presenter of Māori contemporary dance theatre from Aotearoa New Zealand.Jack Gray is a world class recognized Māori contemporary dancer, choreographer, teacher, facilitator, and writer. He is a founding member and became Artistic Director of Atamira Dance Company in 2018. The conversation that I had with Jack Gray was so meaningful, and I learned so much during our talk.
