Interview with Karen Daly; Being Seen as A Dancer
In this episode of DanceCast, Silva interviews Karen Daly, a dancer in Eugene, OR with DanceAbility
International. Karen shares the story of her entrance into dance in her 40s and some highlights from her
career working with DanceAbility. She also discusses the process of creating performances through
DanceAbility’s framework, and how the principles of sensation, relationship, time and design serve to
augment the performers’ ability to communicate to each other and to the audience. Finally, she reflects
on how it’s sometimes still difficult to see herself and be seen as a dancer.
