The Metro: Take a ‘Journey Through the Dance Floor’ with ‘Dance Your Way Home’

16 May 2025 at 00:56

Movement is right around the corner, and many in Detroit and beyond are getting ready to hit the dance floor together and celebrate.

But dance is much more than just movement — it’s a mode of self-expression and a bridge to human connection, or as author Emma Warren calls it, a “technology of togetherness.”

In her recent book, “Dance Your Way Home: A Journey Through the Dance Floor,” Warren reflects on how different styles of music like Detroit techno can influence movements, promote connection and create cultural change.

Today on The Metro, we revisit a conversation Warren had with WDET’s Ryan Patrick Hooper last year about the book and why dance is so important to humans.
