Taste of the Forbidden Fruit by Imran Mohammed

Our 3rd & 4th workshop was outdoors at Wilket Creek Park!

Confessions of a Choreographer #6 – Try, Try & Try Again
I didn’t know what I was getting myself into until I tried it out for myself this week.

It’s been a long weight by Imran Mohammed
The inspiration for this log entry came to me about two weeks ago when one of the students of Limitless Productions’ Dance in my ‘hood workshops asked me, “how much do you weigh?” and then proceeded to backpedal by saying, “what’s the right weight for a dancer?” While I had not thought much about it […]

The flame passes on… by Imran Mohammed

Fear, doubt, a little dance and family by Imran Mohammed
Why am I even auditioning for a total stranger? Who would want to watch me dance? What gives me the right to even be on a stage? WHAT AM I DOING halfway across another city? These, and a thousand similar questions arose in my mind in the middle of an hour long commute from City […]
