Artistic Director, dancer, teacher and creator of The Rationale Method, Nathan Geering has been pioneering research into the unlikely link between hip-hop and visual impairment for a number of years. In 2019 he gave a TEDx talk in Bradford on his methodology of teaching people about visual impairment and dance, and how he teaches people with visual impairment about dance.

Nathan's dance work has been featured on the main stage of the Crucible, outside which he recently organised a Black Lives Matter event.

Join us to talk with him about his approach, his audio description method,what it was like to produce the opening event for the Special Olympics, and how this all fits into his vision.

This event runs on Chatham House Rules, meaning you can use what you learn but may not quote people or identify them.

This event is free.

Your voluntary donation will be split between speakers and one random audience member on a quarterly rolling basis We are doing this because the arts - particularly dance - are in crisis as a result of lockdown and its longer term impact, with many dancers already struggling, and an estimated 70% unlikely to see an income from their work until September 2021 earliest. You can see how previous donations have been spent on the Donations page of WhatNextEastLondon.co.uk.
