In 2017, we embarked on a two-city tour to Burkina Faso, West Africa, supported by the U.S. Embassy, World Learning, and Arts Convoy. We performed at the Ouagadougou International Dance Festival (FIDO) and In-Out Festival in Bobo-Dioulasso, sharing our signature works and leading workshops in various dance styles.

Film by Daniel Madoff

A short video from us on why Touché is important.

A Siren's realm is an exploration of losing one's innocence.

"The Place Between" is an aerial silk contemporary ballet depicting the final moments of a woman’s life. Premiered June 2015 at STREB Lab for Action Mechanics (Brooklyn, NY). This work was made possible by STREB Lab for Action Mechanics’ GO! Emerging Artist Commissioning Program where I was named one of the “Emerging Artist of 2015”.
