Waterfall is a global ritual, taking place on iconic and overlooked staircases around the world.








Waterfall is an intersection between two of ANIKAYA’s public dance series – Sacred Spaces and Mass Movement.
Sacred Spaces is a series of public space interventions that unveil the sacred in the urban landscape.
Mass Movement is a series of actions that call attention to urgent issues that require us to move together as a species to address. Mass Movement actions, like change, are impossible without many people moving together in solidarity. The practices that are taught in Mass Movement projects teach us to work together with care and to connect across what we imagine to be barriers.
In 2023 Waterfall will take place in Bamako, Mali; Boston, Washington, DC and San Francisco with future iterations planned in 2024 in New York City, India, Brazil, Benin and more.
