Hello, my name is Allara Gooliaff and I am the Artistic Director for Three Left Feet, a position which I have cherished since 2003. My movement background is in dance, gymnastics and acro-stilt. My training and performance experiences have taken me all across Canada and all over the world including Guinea, Brazil, France, the UK and the US. I have a B.Sc from the University of Calgary. My major was actuarial science. Three Left Feet was started by three women in 1997. Each of the founding partners had a passion for teaching and performance for young people. Our shared purpose was to bring the joy of music and movement throughout Alberta. We have travelled all over the province. From Grande Prairie to Bow Island and Bonnyville to Edson and every point in between, we have worked with a number of school jurisdictions and countless students and educators. Three Left Feet proves that every ‘BODY’ can dance, even those with two left feet. Our movement story is shaped by geography and our connection to the people who live here. Three Left Feet believes in working with professional artists who possess a unique combination of passion, creativity, spark, and dedication. Motivated by rhythms from all over the world, we encourage others to move with us and be moved by us. We hope to see you soon!
