The Spiritual Power of Dance has transformed, healed and shaped each of our lives. We are artistic vessels, mediums and community servants, embodying Spirit - our life force, the person inside of us, the part of us that never dies, that is eternal, infinite and limitless.
WE are Rara Tou Limen.
WE are the Dancing Spirits.

A Celebration of Katherine Dunham
presented by
Ashkenaz Music & Dance Community Center

A visionary. A cultural icon.
The “matriarch and queen mother of black dance”. All of this and more describes dancer and choreographer Katherine Dunham. Ashkenaz celebrates her legacy with an evening of community dance, storytelling, and performance. Come and try an Introduction to Dunham Technique led by Eyla Josie Moore. Then Danielle Hall will share her reflections on the Life and Legacy of Ms. Dunham followed by historic video footage. The evening will culminate with a special performance by the renowned dance company Rara Tou Limen. Come and join us on the 108th occasion of her birthday! Dance lesson 7:00PM - $10 Presentation/Performance 8:00 – 9:00 - $15 Dance Lesson and Presentation/Performance 7 – 9:00 - $20 |
I'd like to take a moment to acknowledge these beautiful souls. RTL - my dance family.
We were asked by Ashkenaz to perform for a tribute to Katherine Dunham in celebration of her birthday. Although the calendar was booked, and I'm knee-deep in projects, I couldn't decline the invitation to honor Ms. Dunham!
When you only have five weeks to create a piece, with ideas and choreography flowing, gathering photos and music to create a slide presentation within the piece + reverting back to that time in Haiti where you too went through that ritual rebirth that Ms. Dunham experienced...
Had my emotions in high gear throughout the process.
AS ALWAYS, RTL had my back! rose to the occasion, and came out winning like the champs they are! They trusted me throughout this emotional process, with my eye rolls, high expectations and all...
We aren't perfect. Trust, there are trials and tribulations, as in every family, but what holds us together is the genuine love and respect we have for one another, which clearly shines through on stage.
You all SHINED bright last night.

We presented Onè ak Respè, Manbo Ayizan, in honor of Katherine Dunham's birthday.
Not only a dance ethnographer, she was called to serve the spirits, and initiated into Haitian Vodou in 1980 as a Manbo Asogwe.
My love, respect and admiration runs deep for this woman!
As the inspiration behind this choreography, and also as a servant of Lwa, I give thanks to all the spirits for using me as a vessel to continue this important work, and to my dance family Rara Tou Limen, Honor and Respect to you all for your individual qualities, your commitment to the company, the craft, and your love for Haiti and Vodou.
Onward and upward...
Ayibobo. Ayibobo. Ayibobo!!

The San Leandro Library hosted Rara Tou Limen for a Night in Haiti. This was a fun filled family night, where we danced, drummed, sang, had an interactive dance session with participants, and spoke about Haiti. The kids loved their activities. They learned about metal art, made their own, and even used cornmeal to trace Veve's! What I appreciated about the library is that they were not afraid of Vodou. They GOT it! They gave us the platform to educate our audience about Haiti + Vodou in a family setting where all could participate, appreciate and enjoy!

Haiti, The Underside of History
THEME:
GOALS:
THEME:
- Critical understanding of history, particularly how our single narrative leaves out/distorts the peoples' experience.
- How can we "feel" the underside of history?
- We will use multiple mediums to access this experience in hopes that we can get a more complete picture of history and our capacity to act as positive agents of change.
- The historical themes of plunder and lying will be exposed, but the focus will be on the idea that all humans long for freedom, liberty, and self-determination.
GOALS:
- Understand the history of colonialism and imperialism through the lens of art.
- Experience the urge for human freedom.
- Encourage students to take positive risks, try new activities.
- Create class community while having fun.
Inspired by the diversity and vibrancy of the Bay Area’s African arts scene,

Look out for the official invitation this week!
Thank you, Joti Singh and Bongo Sidibe for organizing and showcasing the amazing talent we have in the Bay. The day was filled with good vibes, great people, beautiful dancing and bomb Jamaican food!

One year and five months later...Reflections: AYITI CHERIE: A Black Woman's Journey (2003-2015)
is now published on RTL's website!
Reflections is a project that I decided to take on to document my travels to Haiti. It is a deep, personal journey in sacrifice, commitment and self discovery. This project has forced me to sit still on occasion and reflect on my humble beginning as a 5 year old ballerina to the 40+ dancer I am today.
I'm a private person. Many of you do not know me outside of the dance studio. At this point in my life, I don't have anything to loose. I'm learning that it's okay to be open and vulnerable. I'm sharing my journey with the world, and as scary as that may be, I feel good about it! My hope is that it will inspire young dancers who are thirsty and hungry about this dance life, to be fearless, and GO and get fed. My hope is that folks will SEE Haiti. In all of her glory and continue to salute the first free Black Republic in the world.
Please feel free to share the work. I would love to hear feedback, thoughts, suggestions and even critiques.
Use it as a resource, a source of inspiration to create the life you want. I am blessed to live a life that I have created through DANCE. On my own terms. My journey is far from over. I'm excited and ready for the next chapter. AYIBOBO!

Rara Tou Limen (RTL) Haitian Dance Company recently traveled to Montreal Canada to take the stage and perform with Mapou Ginen and Sole Danse Traditionnelle Moderne. Through the creative process of the three companies, TWA commemorated the 225th Anniversary of Ceremony Bwa Kayiman, while exploring the contribution of women who played an active role in the Haitian Revolution, specifically the contributions of Cécile Fatiman. What would it take for an ordinary woman to rise above her current circumstance and be a fundamental actor in a major turning point in Haitian history? What would her personal and spiritual process look like? What are the different ways the spirits that walk with her would accompany her, helping to fulfill her mission?

WE DID IT!
RTL brought the fire to Montreal! What an AMAZING performance with our dance families Mapou Ginen and Sole Danse Traditionnelle Moderne! We've received so much love and support from everyone in Montreal! Thank you all for the warm welcome. This is just the beginning! Looking forward to the next one. Blessed and humbled for this opportunity to continue the WORK.
Dream it.
Create it.
LIVE IT!
RTL hosted a Song + Dance Workshop with Artistic Director, Portsha Jefferson and Musical Director, Daniel Brav Brevil. We were thrilled for another opportunity to share the Bay Area's love for Haitian culture and arts internationally!

RTL Song + Dance Workshop, Montreal Canada | August 14
Mapou family, thank you for providing the space + opportunity to dance and sing with your community. The workshop was awesome! After we ALL put it down on stage the night before, with intense rehearsals in between, everyone came through to the workshop with great energy, positive vibes, and with the willingness to learn. Give thanks to everyone who came out to share in the culture! The singing, the drumming... just powerful. What a release and a great way to celebrate our collective efforts!

Vinn Pran Baget 2016
Vinn Pran Baget is an annual Dance & Drum Retreat, located in the beautiful coastal city of Jacmel, Haiti. This was Portsha's first collaboration with Dieufel "Ferlo" Lamisere, who is the founder of Dance To Save Lives. As part of Vinn Pran Baget's faculty, Portsha taught a series of Haitian Folkloric dance classes focusing on technique, form and function.
What an honor to work with these young people! They are driven, eager, dedicated and talented individuals who live to DANCE! During this trip, I learned much from them. I am full and thankful for my guides for continually placing my feet on Haitian soil. I am so grateful for this opportunity to teach what has been passed down to me. I'm humbled that my brother, friend and teacher extended the invitation to work with these amazing kids. It was really an exhilarating moment in my dance career. This experience will always remain close to my heart. Onward and upward! I look forward to the next opportunity!
