Our friends in Waco, TX with Out On A Limb Dance Company are working hard to continue developing dance in Waco, TX! I'd thought I'd share what she is up to lately. Brooke Schlecte, artistic director of the company (OoLD), is starting a series of dance class offerings for budding "limbs" interested in dance and moving. This is exciting news! She has forged some pretty exciting relationships with art galleries and camps in Waco that are interested in integrating movement into the areas of art-making they currently support. Below is the information on the program she recently released. Check it out!

I can see that Limb Dance Company has been exerting an extra effort into making everything possible. I appreciate the fact that some of them are really working so hard just to achieve some of the movements they have not did yet. I am looking forward for all the performances they are going to make. I can feel that there's so much they can offer to the public and they actually influence other people who aspire to be dancer one day!

AuthorIt is a simple philosophy here at THE BELL HOUSE; make connections by bringing people together through dance. Art that seeks to defy a fractured view of the world by creating culture that cares for the soul and is concerned with human thriving. For me, it isn’t enough to just make dance for dance’s sake; it is my belief that it is the connective power of people that makes art worth engaging. We do that by taking our interests and talents and challenging the ways we connect them to something tangible in the human experience. It is through these connections and tangibilities that we see the true power of art and dance manifest back to relationships with and through people. In my view, what matters is people; the time and space of making work refract and overlap revealing and creating new possibilities for human connection. Archives
