For #blackhistorymonth, we sat down with Suzan Richards to talk about her beloved SoulRhythms dance classes at the NAC, as well as how she celebrates her Afro-Caribbean heritage to connect with audiences, invite them to tune into their creativity, and share culture together through music and movement. À l’occasion du Mois de l’histoire des Noirs, nous avons rencontré Suzan Richards pour discuter de ses populaires cours de danse SoulRhythms au CNA, ainsi que de la façon dont elle célèbre son héritage afro-caribéen pour créer des liens avec le public, l’inviter à explorer sa créativité et partager la culture à travers la musique et le mouvement. 🖤🎶✨
