Kayla:
Hey y’all, this is Kayla, uh, founder and artistic director of Circle O. I’m a black person wearing a black headscarf, uh, red cat eyeglasses, and around the neck Bluetooth, uh, earphones, a tan shirt. And behind me is, um, a bookshelf with blue LED trim. And this is not a Talking Tuesday. Uh, I am here to announce that Circle O, uh, will be offering a dance class, um, July 16th from 11:00 ‘till 01:00at Movement Research. I’m looking down because I took notes because I don’t... I, I wanna make sure I get everything right. Well, what’s right? But I wanna make sure that I say everything that I intend to say and don’t get overwhelmed by the camera. So I’m gonna start over now that that’s over.
Circle O will be, uh, facilitating dance classes for the next five months for in-person dance classes. That’s right, dance class. No title. It’s a dance class. Um, our first one is July 16th from 11:00 AM to 01:00 PM. The class will be held at Movement Research. Access, Movement Research is an ADA compliance space. There will be an access doula on site. A childcare stipend is available upon request. There is a ground transportation stipend upon request. CART will be provided. And everyone who attends will be, um, given a transition meal, because, you know, in order to keep dancing, we must eat. Um, the space will be designed for you and everyone who attends. So we’ll be asking you all for your access needs and other questions, um, in the registration form. Because of that, we ask that if you do register, um, that you do attend. And if you can’t, for any reason, to please cancel 72 hours in advance so that we can get someone from the wait list in and have a chance to meet their access needs.

Join us on Saturday!!
How Do We Move in Public?
Saturday, May 9, 2026, 4:00-7:00 PM at The Hub, Bronx, NY
RSVP requested (link in SPCUNY’s bio)
Announcing the second program in the 2026 series How Do We ___________ in Public?: a cycle of four free experimental events responding to contemporary crises shaping the cultural field, including the defunding and targeting of public institutions and the erosion of shared civic space. This second program in the series is partnered with BAAD! Bronx Academy of Arts and Dance during the Boogie Down Dance Series.
Organized by Nicolás Dumit Estévez Raful Espejo Ovalles Morel, this event brings together dancers/choreographers with connections to the Bronx to generate movement-based actions in public spaces in the South Bronx: Argelia Arreola (with support from Pepatián: Bronx Arts ColLABorative), Ana ‘Rokafella’ García, Paloma McGregor/Angela’s Pulse, and Alethea Pace. Responding to escalating surveillance, policing, and state violence, particularly the terrorization of Black and Brown communities under ongoing ICE raids, the program advances movement as a counter-response to neglect, with care, and shared imagination, asking how bodies navigate, reshape, and reclaim urban space under conditions of threat.
This program will activate several points along 3rd Avenue and 149th Street, a major cultural crossroads at the heart of the South Bronx called The Hub, and is funded by the Mellon Foundation and the Eugene M. Lang Foundation.
