Watch Acclaimed Dancer, Anjelica Scannura, Get ideacity Moving on Day 1!

Yesterday, the 17th edition of ideacity (June 15-17) arrived at Toronto’s Koerner Hall to provide a room full of eager attendees with some fresh perspectives, a look at eye-popping technology and, of course, a bevvy of fascinating, engaging and entertaining ideas.

While minds are always moving at ideacity, it’s also important for those in the crowd to get out of their seats and shake their tail feathers.

On hand to encourage the latter was Angelica Scannura, an award winning, critically acclaimed dancer, choreographer and actress. Hailing from Toronto, Scannura specializes in Flamenco, Bellydance, as well as a unique brand of Bellydance Fusion. In addition to performing for royalty, Scannura was recognized in 2013 as the best Bellydancer of the Universe.

Scannura’s quick wit, fun-loving personality and excellent moves made it easy for ideacity’s Day 1 idealists to get up, stay loose and keep their spirits positive.
