AXIS Choreo-Lab Fellowship for Disabled Choreographers
The goal of the AXIS Choreo-Lab Fellowship (paid) is to develop, refine and advance the artistic skills of disabled and/or neurodivergent choreographers. The Lab offers an inclusive environment where established, disabled, D/deaf, and/or neurodivergent artists mentor their peers to challenge boundaries and create perception changing art. During the Lab, Fellows will be led through a creation process stemming from their own concept, collaborating with an integrated group of performers including AXIS dancers and professional dancers from the local community. The Lab provides studio space, dancers, and administrative support for every choreographer. This opportunity also includes ongoing mentorship and professional development support in the year following the Lab.

Amisha Iyer: Marley and Dance Tiling for Sale
I am selling a 5ft x 7ft roll of Rosco Adagio black marley and a set of 35 portable dance tiles (1ft x 1ft) that make a 5ft x 7ft dance floor (separately or together).
I would love to help out the bay area dance community by selling it to a local studio. Prices are negotiable! Facebook marketplace listings below:
Marley: $100 https://www.facebook.com/share/WVSF2ZqSFDW13iPD/
Dance tiles: $200 https://www.facebook.com/share/AZEjd4NfJCgpMo
I used the marley over the tiles for half a year and only wore socks or soft shoes on it, so there are no scuff marks or other blemishes.
Please don’t hesitate to email me if you are interested or have any further questions.
