Tales of Courage

In "Tales of Courage," we witness a profound journey of self-discovery and freedom. Initially feeling powerless and disconnected from the world and herself, Harriet, takes a brave step to escape her painful existence. Through the art of pole dancing, she finds a new perspective, drawing closer to her true self and creating a deep connection to her mind and body. "Tales of Courage" celebrates growth, resilience and the healing power of dance, where vulnerability becomes a source of fortitude and strength.
