This week on the podcast, the incredible Emily Wanserski (@wanswonders), cultural practitioner, producer, consultant, cultural doula, and so much more, joins me to give a crash course on dance history in Los Angeles. I am so envious and admire the knowledge Emily has accumulated on dance history in her decade of living in L.A. Thank you, Emily, for the work you have cultivated in the L.A. dance ecosystem, and thank you for being a wonderful guest and friend! Please enjoy this conversation with Emily Wanserski.
