Now based in Calgary, Canada, Ziad focuses on education and community impact—developing dancers through a foundation-first approach that emphasizes authenticity, knowledge, and individual voice. Through his teaching and visual work, he continues to create spaces where dancers are not just learning movement, but understanding culture and telling their own stories.
