-
We want to ensure our productions promote diversity, equity, and inclusion and are representative of an evolving dance community.

We want to welcome our guests into a safe space where we can delve into topics without sacrificing nuance for sensationalist soundbites. We want to model healthy, generative discourse for our audience.

We want our audience to feel empowered to take meaningful actions and make positive changes after engaging with our content.

We believe in the transformational power of joy. We are doing this because it brings us joy. We want our work to bring others joy too.
