Our Mission
Dancing Without Borders envisions, designs and catalyzes transformational experiences in partnership with communities around the world, helping humanity wake up to its full potential. Through collaboration with artists, businesses, non-profits, local organizers and citizens we offer body-centered leadership trainings, workshops and large scale public experiences that transform perspectives and liberate the human spirit. Those intimate collective experiences are meant to open direct authentic dialogues towards our collective renewal helping us all meet the complexities of this time.
By bringing together people from all generations and walks of life, we enable participants to expand their capacity to be the change they want to see in the world and carry into their daily lives a radically renewed vision of what’s possible. As a result, individuals and communities experience greater vitality, resilience and authentic connection across divisions and borders.
Martha GrahamThere is a vitality, a life force, an energy, a quickening that is translated through you into action, and because there is only one of you in all of time, this expression is unique. And if you block it, it will never exist through any other medium and it will be lost. The world will not have it. It is not your business to determine how good it is nor how valuable nor how it compares with other expressions. It is your business to keep it yours clearly and directly, to keep the channel open. You do not even have to believe in yourself or your work. You have to keep yourself open and aware to the urges that motivate you. Keep the channel open. … No artist is pleased. [There is] no satisfaction whatever at any time. There is only a queer divine dissatisfaction, a blessed unrest that keeps us marching and makes us more alive than the others.
