Bagèt Sant Dans Ayiti Inc was born from a conviction that Haitian dance is one of the world's most powerful and underrepresented art forms — a living archive of resistance, spirituality, and joy.
For over fifteen years, we have trained hundreds of students, led international performances, and built a community that stretches from Port-au-Prince to Miami and beyond.
We do not merely teach steps. We pass down a tradition — with every lesson, workshop, and residency, we ensure that Haitian movement culture survives and thrives for generations to come.
Meet the Team →BITASYON changed everything I thought I knew about Vodou and Haitian culture. It is not a performance — it is a living, breathing tradition carried with profound respect and love.
As someone with no background in Haitian dance, I was nervous to join. From day one, the GOUYAD program made me feel seen, challenged, and genuinely celebrated.
We partnered with Bagèt for our cultural programming and the response was extraordinary. This is not just dance — it is history, identity, and joy all at once.
How the geometric symbols of Vodou translate into the body — a deep dive into meaning, movement, and memory.
