Description

Artivism Dance Theatre (ADT) is a collective dedicated to bringing awareness and generating discussion of social issues to a wide range of audiences. We tell our own stories in an effort to reach across divisions, find commonality, and spark change. We prioritize communication of social message over esoteric performance, often using multimedia techniques in our work. We believe that art, and specifically movement, can communicate perspective and experience across gaps in culture, language, and tradition that might otherwise remain unbreachable. ​ The collaborative is comprised of dance professionals with years of experience in both performance and instruction. Trained in a great variety of techniques Artivism's repertoire displays the expertise of company members ranging from movements of the African diaspora to Ballet. We believe in the power of movement to transform our health, our lives, and our communities. Our studio is a space where humans of all walks of life can come and move their bodies! We offer dance, fitness, and yoga with classes for ages 3 and up. We are committed to fostering, cultivating and preserving a culture of diversity, equity and inclusion. Our focus in social activism includes a financially accessible payment policy and scholarship program. ​
