“We can go on talking about racism and who treated whom badly, but what are you going to do about it? Are you going to wallow in that or are you going to create your own agenda? People come to see beauty, and I dance to give it to them. Dance is bigger than the physical body. When you extend your arm, it doesn’t stop at the end of your fingers, because you’re dancing bigger than that; you’re dancing spirit.” Judith Jamison Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater Artistic Director, Performer alvinailey.org Related posts:Announcement: JUDITH JAMISON ...

You’ve seen it in the news, but maybe you’re not aware of how this economic crisis is affecting you in unexpected ways. Funding for the arts is the first thing cut during financial crises, and your ability to choose from a selection of high quality dance performances (or gallery openings, concerts, and theater shows) will dwindle as the economy takes its toll on the arts. As the Artistic Director of a young modern dance company in New York City I would like to take a moment to talk about how dance is being affected by this current financial predicament, ...

“Interpretive Dance” + America’s Next Top Model = FASHION!

March 25, 2010 · Posted by This Momma Can Dance ·
I haven’t ever blogged about America’s Next Top Model before, and I’ve watched it ever since they swathed cheap fabric on fold up tables for the judges’ panel in season 1.

But it’s really not easy, ...
