Last month was a very productive one for Tiempo De Juego’s team and the kids who actively participate in the different activities of Cazuca Dreams On. We’ve always been dreaming about inspiring kids through arts, sports and Technology. This is why from May 13th to May 17th we had the pleasure of hosting one of the most recognized, experienced Dance academies of the U.S, Cleo Parker Robinson Dance Ensemble.
Visiting us from Denver, Colorado, and with the help of our several years cooperation with Dr. Harvey Milkman, 12 members of CPRDE (including dancers and directors) inspired us with their work and lessons. The visit began with an amazing workshop planned by CPRD to teach kids from the “Natalia Moreno” Dance School on how to communicate with their bodies at dancing, the day concluded with a unique performance by both groups together. This integration was the cherry on the cake of a fantastic day and truly showed a sense of communion and unity between both groups. This event was witnessed by almost 100 hundred assistants (both kids and TDJs team).
But that wasn’t all, CPRD was ready to blow our minds with one of the best shows Tiempo the Juegos partners, friends, participants and families could see. On an evening performance as a fundraising event, CPRD danced with their hearts in front of 250 people.
Creating this opportunities for youth is what we aspire to do every day. By providing fun spaces for them to express and explore we’re allowing them to connect with their inner self and aspire for better opportunities now and in the future.
We thank you all for the support you've been giving Fundación Tiempo de Juego this year to be able to provide children and youth with an opportunity to have natural highs through dance and arts.
Thank you for joining Fundación Tiempo de Juego too. The ball keeps rolling!
