AlignDance Theatre Company

Studio Kinetics AKA AlignDance Theatre is performing arts company that strongly focuses on collaborative combinations of multiple art forms: dance, art, music, and theatre. The company presents diverse, original, and creative choreography using various dance genres, art as an inspiration, newly composed and live music, literary works, and live vocalist to enhance and transform movement. Our company’s collaborations are an integral part of our multi-artform productions

Company Goals

To create new original choreographic works inspired by the process and collaboration between dancer and artist working within an educational institution program or other non-profits. In addition, a four-part modern-ballet work inspired by famous poets’ works. The objective is to enhance skills and methods to integrate within an artist’s and dancers’ techniques.

Outreach Goals

AlignDance Projects/Outreach Programs are designed to give back to our community and provide a chance to experience movement, see movement and hear movement as a way of communication, freedoms, expression, and therapy. Our approach helps individuals recognize personal movement, understand, explore, and create new movement patterns. This allows physical and emotional freedom, relief, and rejuvenation and enhances their lives.

Contact us if you are interested in an outreach collaboration.

Seeking Projects

AlignDance Theatre is always looking to work with others who have a passion for movement. In the past, we have worked with American Sign Language students and continue to explore the idea of ASL and dance collaboration to create future works

We are seeking to work with Visual Artists to create DANCEART Collective Collaboration.
