Through Movement we are able to experience emotion, creativity, expression, physical fitness, body awareness and intelligence, physical and mental health. Dance is expressive movement with intent, purpose, and form. In dance we transform, communicate, and interpret ideas, feelings and experiences. Dance communication is transmitted thru movement and mediated thru the body and gestures of the dancer (mover). Dancers are therefore both performers and the instruments thru which movement is expressed. Movement is always changing and evolving, personal and communal. Performance is an act of giving with both performer and audience engaged in an exchange of energy and love. Come share in this unique experience based in the highest of human aspirations.
