Harmanie Rose: disability-led arts and movement

01/05/2026

Happy New Year! I hope everyone had a peaceful and recuperative holiday and is ready for a new year full of new experiences. I am almost ready to get back to dancing, and I hope you can join me.

Spinal Cord Injury BC is hosting me to offer a free Dance Flow Class on Mondays from 6pm to 7pm, from January 12 to February 9. It's a great way to be present in your body, explore joyful movement and connect with a wonderful community.

I hope I will see you next week. Everyone is welcome.

Explore, create, and get moving in Dance Flow! Led by Harmanie Rose, this inclusive class welcomes everyone, regardless

With over 10 years of inclusive dance in Vancouver, I have been proud to be part of the great work All Bodies Dance has been doing. Check out their work at the Roundhouse, now until December 6th.

The next Dance Flow session begins tomorrow evening. I'm looking forward to sharing dance with everyone. It is an indescribable feeling to take an hour to be present in your own body and to share movement with people across Canada. What a lovely world we live in that this is possible!

So often in dance we get caught up in chasing “perfect.” Perfect turnout, perfect lines, perfect timing. But the truth is, perfection alone is empty without the dancer behind it 💃✨

What stays with people is not the shape of your arabesque, it’s the feeling you give them when you move.

Audiences remember connection ❤️

They remember honesty 🌟

They remember the moments where you stopped trying to be flawless and started letting yourself be seen.

That’s where the real magic lives.

Dancers, your power has always been more than just the steps. It’s in your laugh during rehearsals, the way you light up when the music starts 🎶 and the courage it takes to share a piece of yourself onstage 💜 That is what lingers long after the curtain closes.

Technique matters. But who you are matters more. Never forget that 🌸

The more diverse a room is, the more creative resources we have to draw from. I know many disabled dancers in Canada do not have access to the necessary supports to allow them to truly immerse themselves in the craft.

"I doubt we will be able to fill the gap left by these debilitating cuts"

In this week's Long Read, The Stage investigates how the thriving disabled dance sector is under threat from under-the-radar grant cuts and other barriers to inclusion 👇
