Artist Feature: Saharla Vetsch / @thatsomajor For @ybca presents Megan Lowe Dances’ “Air Between Us,” a vertical dance experience, May 15-17 🎟️ Get Tickets via link in @mlowedancekitty bio! Saharla Vetch (she/her) is a Somali American multidisciplinary artist rooted in the Bay Area. Saharla earned a degree in Performing Arts and Social Justice from the University of San Francisco. Her focus is on movement storytelling using elements of vertical dance, drag, and spectacle. Saharla’s teaching and performances encourage and celebrate the intersecting identities that make up who we are. She does this in the spaces of queer nightlife entertainment, multigenerational dance education, and through collaborative dance performances. She creates work that fosters community and connection using physical comedy, high-camp energy, and infectious joy. Saharla strives to be a beacon of self-expression, harnessing the liberating power of dance to ignite the same sense of freedom in others. Saharla and I have been dancing together with Flyaway since 2022, and this is her first project with MLD. Thrilled to have Saharla bringing her contagious fun energy to Air Between Us,” as well has her deep presence! 📷 @onino.fehnuhndez of @thatsomajor with @gabriele.mov for MLD’s “Air Between Us” at YBCA Forum - 2026 #MeganLoweDances #YBCA #VerticalDance #AerialDance #DancePerformance

🪩 DANCE HOUSE 🪩 Produced, choreographed, creatively birthed this baby with the most talented people. A love letter to queer club spaces, the confidence & freedom it has given me and so many. In this show we relished in desired utopia through drag, aerial, black joy and play. In this house we worship the shine each other brings and reflect back that luminosity. Thank you to the people who make sticky floors and sweaty exchanges feel like home. And thank you to my community for constantly showing up!
