FAQ's

What type of dancer/styles are you looking for?

I'm looking to take the model I created with Contradiction and replicate it with this group. I am looking for a very diverse group of movers who are interested in expanding their core technical skills, build a common movement vocabulary, and augment each other's specialties. Meaning, in my existing company, I have a mix of hip-hop dancers, contemporary ballet and modern dancers, tap, jazz, a composer and a story-teller.

I am interested in training dancers through both class and performance to explore their versatility and expand their options. As a choreographer I make dances that have meaning for both the performers and the audience - our last concert was called, "Objects of Hope: Washington, DC" based on the experiences of my composer and drummer and growing up here in anacostia & adams morgan.

And lastly, to just have fun. We dance because we need to - I'm anxious to work with another group who shares the passion and joy.

TIME:

I'm planning on having rehearsals two days/week max. As this is a ground-up endeavor, starting half-way through the year, I want to build the group as an ensemble through training together and performing as often as possible - but in a way that works in everyone's lives. I picked the Wed/Sat slots as I'm going to offer class for the group both days - choosing to set choreo on the group that can be there each day - meaning we'll end up with two working groups, with some people in both as they are available.

Should I bring my dance resume/head shot?

Of course.  If you don't have one, COME ANYWAY!
