LOLA LOOPS

Lola is a passionate multi-disciplinary artist living on the unceded and illegally occupied territories of the Squamish, Tsleil-Waututh and Musqueam Nation. Her love of movement came in the form of a Hula Hoop— It was there that she first established a space to explore her body, in spiral form. Her desire to explore and train further spun her straight into the realms of street and contemporary dance, along with forms of ritual theatrics, soft acrobatics and clowning.

 

Pushing the status quo from the ground up, Lola aspires to weave stories that are meaningful and vulnerable with her signature touch of silly and sass. With over a decade of performing and facilitating workshops locally and internationally, she is energized by her quest to break norms and turn heads, all while exploring new styles of movement and utilizing them in her quest of self-expression.

​

Lola is also very active in Vancouver’s dance & circus community, currently a member of two dance groups: Omnika in Motion— a performing arts troupe fusing together a unique bled of Dance & Circus Arts; and The Lighttwerkerz—a booty-shaking, body-positive crew initiating change in our culturally-prescribed views of movement and beauty.
