In this episode of Tamarindo, we speak with Adrian, the founder of Queerchata, a transformative dance community designed to create an inclusive, degendered space for queer and trans individuals to explore Latin dance. Adrian shares their journey of discovering dance as a form of self-expression, the inspiration behind Queerchata, and the journey of building a welcoming environment across cities. They discuss redefining traditional dance roles, fostering chosen family within the Queerchata community, and celebrating culture in non-traditional ways, while reflecting on the importance of visibility and their vision for Queerchata’s impact on the larger dance world.
In this episode, we mention Encuentro, a restorative retreat.Join us in Puebla, Mexico May 2 - 6, 2025 for a restorative, culture filled, retreat, at a UNESCO world heritage site known for its exquisite cuisine and varied architecture.
