World-renowned Canadian choreographer and performer, Anne Plamondon, presents Myokine at the Tempo Dance Festival - Te Rerenga o Tere at Auckland's Q Theatre.

This compelling work highlights the body as a beacon of resilience and hope, inspired by myokines, also known as ‘hope molecules’ which are produced by the muscles throughout the body through movement. Myokines are considered mental stress-busters with influence on brain structure and function. 

Plamondon's dancers explore the transformative power of dance to heal and unite, responding to the pressing demands of our time.
