Dance To Heal with Tyde-Courtney Edwards

Published: Sept. 7, 2020, noon

This week I'm talking with Tyde-Courtney Edwards, an incredible woman, who has worked to transcend her own pain, through the healing power of dance. She has now founded her own ballet company, Ballet After Dark, to help other black women trauma survivors do the same. 
 
Ballet After Dark is an immersive dance class and therapy program. Through social media, Tyde-Courtney received several requests to start her program worldwide, and now Ballet After Dark just launched their first international studio, in Mexico.
 
B.Monet, a renowned American filmmaker, heard of Tyde-Courtney’s story. As a result, she reached out, and together they created the beautiful, award-winning short film, Ballet After Dark. This film was produced by Queen Latifah, and is now streaming on Hulu, Amazon Prime and screening at the Lunafest Film Festival across the country.
 
Tyde-Courtney is offering women an innovative, transformative, and positive way to cope with the grief of trauma. Listen in to hear more about my amazing guest this week, Tyde-Courtney Edwards.
