ABOUT ELEVATE CONTEMPORARY COMPANIES
Contemporary companies provide unique opportunities for dancers to create and choreograph dances. This year we learned about screendance and held our own screendance festival where we invited university dance professors to adjudicate the films that the company members choreographed. It was a unique and exciting experience!
This year was unlike any other, but we want to thank ALL of you for your patience and positivity. We are thrilled that your dancers were able to perform in person this year to a live audience. Thanks to all of our teachers for your amazing work with the dancers, your choreography, and for sharing your talent with our studio. Thank you to the families of the dancers for supporting and allowing them to express themselves through dance. And thank you to all of our dancers for working hard and putting on a fabulous show!
