Kairos Alive! transforms lives through dance and story, and raises awareness of the importance of creative involvement across the lifespan for verifiable health benefits. Our Choreography of Care™ programs promote personal and community well-being through our Intergenerational Dance Hall™ public participation events, our Dancing Heart™ weekly programming, our Community Arts and Wellbeing™ Residencies, and other programs. We empower intergenerational and intercultural communities through participatory dance, music and story — with elders at the center.
Maria Genné
It is with broken hearts that we share the news that our founder, Maria Genné has unexpectedly passed away. The swift timeline has left us in a moment of transition and reflection. Even in this challenging time we hold fast to the future of Kairos Alive!. The work and programs that Maria created will live on and grow with the proper support. We know that Maria would want her programs to continue and support the communities she served. She sustained many hearts through dance, music and storytelling. These special programs offered so much empowerment, nurturing, healing and JOY.
