Latest Ariellah News

"Last night's show created a lot of questions. How does a woman generate silence among 300 people? How does she do it WITHOUT MOVING in a dance show? How does she attract the attention, the gaze, the energy toward her with ONE note and ONE movement? How does she hypnotize the place, attract everyone to her dance, wrap us up slowly giving us the movement and the music in digestible doses, creating tension until we burst into applause? An enormous lesson in stage presence, language, communication with the public, technique... Children, adults, dancers, technicians, photographers, the museum...all hypnotized by the magic of Ariellah."
--Marina CastaƱeda, MEXICO CITY 2009
