At a time when many freelance dancers in Johannesburg struggle to access training, space and opportunities, choreographer Llewellyn Mnguni is stepping in to bridge the gap.
The Mahikeng-born dancer recently hosted a free three-week dance workshop festival, giving over 80 freelance dancers a rare opportunity to train, connect and grow without the financial burden that often comes with professional classes.
The initiative, titled Dance with the Pros, brought together eight professional dance teachers and created an accessible platform for dancers often left on the margins of the industry.
