Anatomically the foot has both a bridge and an arch. But beyond the all-important anatomy of the foot lies the symbolism of the bridge and the arch. Spanning genres and styles, Bridges & Arches sees the dancers seamlessly adapting to the stylistic demands of four different choreographers journeying from contemporary to neo-classical, from ballet to flamenco and Tswana and Khoisan, bridging the space between the styles and offering an exciting spectrum of dance . While the arch is associated with efficiency and strength in building and architecture, on a symbolic level the arch represents a constant motion of moving forward and expanding, with new beginnings, new perspectives and new opportunities.
