Just had the busiest creole season still recovering! 🥹
After missing last years celebrations, I had high hopes for this creole season, and Wato truly exceeded them.
It’s my absolute favourite creole event on the island, and I'm so thankful to have been part of the vibrant atmosphere created by @wato_dominica with my team @waitucirque

Wato isn't just about food; it's a celebration of our culture, and it’s vital to keep that spirit alive.The cultural groups brought so much energy and joy, reminding us of the importance of our traditions.
Incorporating circus elements into cultural events like this is essential as we honour our roots while evolving and embracing new ideas.
Feeling inspired and grateful for the chance to have celebrated our heritage through dance and performance! 🇩🇲

Ps. Prepared to be sick of me, I will be using this song in my next two posts. You have been warned. - khade the Poet

@ciemangenuage Circus Ship Mange Nuage made a stop to Dominica in March 2026.

It is a one of a kind 'Sailing Circus' vessel on a one year voyage around the Atlantic.

This 'cloud eater' has lots of charm

Carnival season has long come to a close, but before February ends, we want to leave this here.
Celebration should never come at the cost of a child’s safety.

Culture is beautiful. Joy is powerful. But children must always be protected.
Let’s raise the standard together for 2027✨️🎉

December is serving movement and magic 🌴✨️
We're giving you an early Christmas present in the form of a trial pole class with @fadinha_aimee. Many of you were apprehensive, well now is your time to have your questions answered! Join us on Monday.

And join us every other day for aerial classes. Carnival is just around the corner and circus is a great way to get fit for your feathery costumes. 🎊🎉

Treat yourself to a lil movement magic before the year ends.

I’m introducing a new character I've been working on. She’s inspired by Dominica’s history, our present, and our folklore. Say hi to Belle-Âme.
