AGile dance collective

"To breathe. To smile. To love. We don’t want to move, we have to move. By allowing life to be our dancer, and ourself to be the dance. No matter where our mind or body goes, our passion is always along side of us making us unstoppable. Creativity means loving life in our eyes. Collaborating creativity, experience and exploration both inside and outside of the studio is what we strive for to better our self's in all of life’s areas. Everybody is on his or her own path. Our path it to create, perform and teach. Our dreams may be big ones, but our mindset to achieving them is even bigger." -
