Hello everyone .... doing my usual strolls on google, I found something very interesting and relevant I would say with my blog ... Who says that the deaf can not dance? Read here ..... The Deaf dance the "Braille"
Few know the history of deaf people, very few of their culture. Deaf people in our country developed, are considered disabled, that is disabled, ie unable to live a "normal" life. Recently on Channel 4, TV's former Berlusconi's Fininvest, 's deaf actress Marlee Matlin (Oscar-winner' s performance in Children of a Lesser God) is the protagonist of a television series titled "Reasonable Doubt" in which she plays the role of a prosecutor (state attorney) sordo.Molti believe that the Deaf signers can not do the Lawyers, denies this show. And it's not only show ... In the U.S. there is an 'important Lawyers Association of the Deaf who exercise regularly (with the help of professional interpreters). In Italy a deaf person would be many difficulties, not only for the study, if you would become a lawyer! And if you wanted to become a dancer? Impossible, say the hearing people. But no, as well as American dance companies, existed, founded in 1967, the DEMAMA DANCE COMPANY formed exclusively by deaf dancers. This company charged Israel with considerable success in the 70s all over the world. The Company was directed by choreographer Moshe Efrati, who decided in 1975 to create a new company: 'Efrati Dance Company, with deaf dancers. In 1978 the two airlines merged and led by Efrati was born a company of deaf and hearing the call Moshe Efrati Koldmama Dance Company. Worldwide, the company has received great appreciation from audiences and critics. Deaf people involved in the dance sounds vibrated through the multiple dance techniques revisited by Moshe Efrati ritmicamente.Questa have become very prominent feature. or new form of dancing, called "Braille." Everything revolves around the vision of rhythm. Today, deaf professional dancers of the company were only three, only one of them takes part in the show and is torunée in Italy. It still justifies the name of the company (Demama silence actually means), but once the Deaf represented at least 50% of the company. Efrati, to avoid misunderstandings, keep telling everyone not to be a therapist and we also want to emphasize this fact. It is not method or treatment for "hearing" is not dance-therapy (wanting to coin a term similar to the music therapy!). Instead, it is a company with professional deaf dancers who dance like all the others, no particular reason. Not even to show the world that deaf people can, like the deaf, exercise any profession. However the fact remains, enjoyable for us because it confirms what has long argued, that before saying to the deaf that is impossible for them to do upon any one thing, it should be well riflettere.I deaf dancers of this and other companies are the living answer to what the hearing, which still are surprised, unaware of the deafness and the potential (intellectual, cognitive, professional, creative ...) of deaf people. Even the Deaf Italians have a new opportunity to reflect ... So far they have agreed to be "inferior" to accept their "disability" and therefore believe that hearing can not perform certain jobs. Perhaps it is the case for review, and forever, these PREGIUDIZI.Lo spectacle of Israeli company is called Y BACK CAMINA and was presented successfully in Mexico. The story belongs to history and Jewish Culture, is the story of Sephardic Jews, the Jews of Spain, which dates back to 1492 (year of the discovery of 'America, but also the year of the expulsion of English Jews because of the' Inquisition). In the show it represents the figure of 'wandering jew walking and walking, as the voice of Yossi Banai (famous Israeli actor) between the sheet music you listen to music in English-Sephardic-Jewish, and Italian translation approximate. Unfortunately, the show is aimed at deaf and text has no translation in Sign Language to enable deaf people to understand it. However, even the deaf can really appreciate the original, because few know the languages \u200b\u200bcitate.Accanto the music and sounds (and sound Demama Kol means, as already mentioned is the Silence) creates a special atmosphere. Because they thought of it that the show is not aimed at deaf people, has no such intention. Our deaf friends can still appreciate the language of modern dance, full of symbolic movements (toward the earth, the dust that Jews stand up while walking your eyes look down with his head down, but perhaps the heart sails between the hopes .. . and the dance steps may redeem the condition of the oppressed and persecuted in a bound, in a sign-up, 77 times and forever free to the sky). Consulates Mark (July 1993, during the tour of Italy in the Israeli dance company).
In my opinion because everyone can dance .. dance .. dance music is something that you have inside, is a melody that everyone keeps in his heart!
