NEW! In the Caribbean, "batty" is the word for buttocks. Using techniques honed through the Hair Party effort, Urban Bush Women has expanded its civic dialogue practice to discuss positive body images. Batty Parties combine discussion, improvisation, audience participation, dialogue and performance excerpts from the critically-acclaimed "Batty Moves," an homage to the female form.
B.O.L.D., Builders Organizers & Leaders through Dance, is a program that develops participants' problem-solving, consensus building and leadership development skills through dance training and choreographic development. B.O.L.D.. with support from New York State Senator Velmanette Montgomery, Independence Community Foundation and Con Edison, has been launched at the Atlantic Terminal public housing complex in Fort Greene, Brooklyn. Weekly classes with young women, ages 7-14, culminate in quarterly public showings.
Since 2003, UBW has partnered with the Brooklyn YWCA, another organization committed to empowering women and girls and to fighting racism, to create a dance/creative movement program encouraging self-expression, personal responsibility and the development of problem-solving skills.
