This experimental dance festival invites dancers across Australia and the Asia-Pacific to discover the unique colour of their movement.
Ki 氣 involves a dance battle, jam session, masterclass series and a talk with experimental dance leaders across the Asia-Pacific.
Please note the dance battle and jam session will take place on Saturday 23 May 2026 at a different venue.
