Jordan's theoretical research into queer cartoon representations reveals that the only characters identified as male who continually cross paths as female are alien figures. Since these alien representations are the product of humor and mockery, their only characteristic is that they are crazy women. Space Zombies, Lilo & Stitch, American Dad, Teletubbies, Les Supers Nanas, etc. are all animated films and series that feature the exact same type of queer characters: the dehumanized. This dehumanization of LGBT+ people is not their only sore point, as some major cartoon producers prefer to portray the sexual and gender minority community as beings to be hated and feared to the utmost.

How is the queer cartoon community dehumanized and demonized? In a lecture of one and a half hours, Jordan willRogerpresent his analysis that confirms what queer and trans people have learned all their lives: we are aliens.

Jansens and Geens enter into an intimate dialogue between the female body and its concealing and revealing. For this sensitive circus performance, they drew inspiration from flamenco, isolation and acro dance and the specific role of femininity within the dance styles. The naked exposition of a female body is explored and visualized.

Bring out your inner diva! Girly X High Heels is een high energy class die volledig draait om zelfvertrouwen en het uitdrukken van jouw vrouwelijkheid (ook als man). Deze stijl verwerkt verschillende elementen van andere dansstijlen zoals Jazz en Hiphop. De focus ligt naast elegantie ook op het uitvoeren van lijnen, walking en de juiste techniek voor bepaalde bewegingen.

Niet iedereen is even comfortabel op hakken dus het is zeker geen verplichting want bij sommige choreografieën zal er ook op sneakers gedanst worden! Het is een open level les dus iedereen vordert op z’n eigen tempo en is vrij om te kiezen om al dan niet op hakken te dansen. Maar indien je het toch wilt proberen raden we je aan om te beginnen met schoenen met een dikke hak.

Maximum aantal deelnemers: 75 deelnemers
