About this listen
What does it mean to move with purpose?
In this episode of Rebel Artists Through Time, we meet Melly Mel — dancer, choreographer, and educator — whose journey has taken her from grassroots crews in Ottawa to the global stage with Cirque du Soleil.
Mel shares how dance became her form of light, how she calls on her ancestors before each performance, and how she passes her art on to the next generation — including her own son.
Highlights include:
– Stories from Cirque du Soleil, including the night she freestyled to save the show.
– Balancing motherhood, teaching, and artistry.
– What audiences often miss about the work behind the performance.
