Zoom GUS site — for individuals and GUS sites — as a way to connect
Hosted by Colleen Bartley
The “Catch-All” is an online GUS site, which virtually connects dancers around the world for Global Underscore 2023. This is for individuals and GUS sites. Individuals who do not have a GUS site in their region are encouraged to participate. Also, dancers at a GUS site can experience dancing in-person while simultaneously dancing with others online.
