MASHUP CONTEMPORARY DANCE COMPANY

MashUp Contemporary Dance Company is an all female touring contemporary dance company that aims to create artistically innovative works and engage diverse communities in the invaluable experience of dance through performances, after school educational programming, and participation with the Los Angeles Dance Community. We strive to inspire our audiences by exploring the use of multimedia to expand our expressive capabilities and by creating a unique MashUp aesthetic combining jazz, modern, and hip hop vocabulary with our foundation strongly rooted in ballet. We aim to share the gift of dance and use it to empower children in expressing themselves, understanding their bodies and physical capabilities, and impress the importance of physical activity and health through the joy of dance. A special importance is placed on young girls and women as we seek to inspire them to be strong, confident, and articulate females. Dance is an incredible vehicle for commenting on the human experience, relevant social issues, and philosophical possibilities. We believe this incomparable experience should be available to all people regardless of race, age, income, or background. We are proud to be a part of the diverse and exciting Los Angeles Dance Community and aim to further grow as meaningful members of this community through our local programming and world touring. MashUp Contemporary Dance Company is a non profit 501 c 3 organization.
