Dunham Technique is a vibrant African diasporic dance technique as relevant today as it was in its genesis in the 1930s. Through its humanistic philosophies and its focus on deep connection with the self and with others it is a balm for the current worldwide state of divisiveness and egocentrism. Dunham Technique is a way of life.
