HOTFOOT Online Magazine
HOTFOOT is One Dance UK’s biannual publication focusing on dance of the African Diaspora (DAD), providing a platform for critical debate around the dance practices of the African Diaspora in the UK.Coverage of DAD practice and research is limited in the mainstream and specialist dance press in the UK. Set up in 2001, HOTFOOT aims to redress this balance by providing a unique forum for discussion and critical debate specifically focused on these dance forms. Through performance reviews, interviews, feature articles and thought pieces, HOTFOOT aims to increase understanding of DAD, raise the level of critical debate surrounding these forms, profile artists and develop writers for the sector.The range of dance forms covered includes traditional and contemporary Caribbean and African, and strong African influenced forms from the Americas such as capoeira, samba, jazz, tap, street and hip hop. Accessible articles cover issues ranging from artistic to practical, political and theoretical.
