However, we believe that dance can connect us and bring people together at this time.<\/p>\n<p>This project is anchored in Bomba\u2019s values of unity, individuality and connection. For the first half of the work, each dancer choreographed their own dance with different styles and emotions, brought together through an underlying bomba rhythm, same costume, and choosing a location in our houses. Even though the houses are thousands of miles away from each other, it gives a sense as if it were just one house. The structure of the second half is inspired by \u2018Rosas danst :Rosas\u2019. Each dancer contributed an individual movement to create a shared phrase, and we are finally united when we come together in one unison order.<\/p>\n<p>A heartfelt thanks to our special guests Alicia D\u00edaz, our professor, and Laura Su\u00e1rez, our classmate prior to COVID-19, whose participation augments our message of connection and presence.<\/p>\n<p>We hope our work can provide a sense of unity and connection as well as individuality to those undergoing times of social distancing.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>CREDITS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Choreography:<\/strong> Aiko Decker, Helene Leichter, Hera Liew, Melisa Raja Gopal, Kayla Schiltz, Anna Tartline<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dancers:<\/strong> Aiko Decker, Alicia D\u00edaz, Helene Leichter, Hera Liew, Melisa Raja Gopal, Kayla Schiltz, Laura Suarez, Anna Tartline<\/p>\n<p><strong>Music:<\/strong> H\u00e9ctor &#8220;Coco&#8221; Barez<\/p>\n<p><b>Videography: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wyatt C.
