Movement Heals with Ricardo Barrett

As performers we are told what to do and how to do it.

My guest this week, Ricardo Barrett, shares his incredible journey of finding his own way of moving and connecting the body back to the heart. In this conversation Ricardo tells his story of how he found his passion for the stage as well as how he started to find his way back to himself when on the outside his life looked great, but inside he felt like he didn't know what he was doing anymore.

Ricardo attended the American Musical and Dramatic Arts Academy in Los Angeles and after graduating was a three year member of The Jamaica Junior Theatre Company as well as The Company Dance Theatre, under the direction of Tony Wilson. Then in 2015 he left for the Martha Graham School and became a member of Graham 2. During that same time he performed Amanda Kreglow’s “In The Midst of Dying” on TED Talks Live “War & Peace”,  along with multiple Graham and contemporary works by choreographers like Adam Barruch and Virginie Mecene. Ricardo was a member of the second Company for three years and an Apprentice with the Martha Graham first company for 2 years. Ricardo is currently a member of Alison Cook-Beatty Dance, Buglisi Dance Theatre and Dzul dance as well as a trained actor and dance teacher who loves to explore different forms and styles of artistic expression.

This conversation was filled with incredible energy, synchronicities and more. Make sure to share this with a friend so they can get in on this energy too!
