33 years ago, West Virginia Dance Company was founded with the distinct purpose of enriching lives
through dance. Today, WVDC continues performing through a blend of educational, entertaining and thought-provoking modern
works that generate enthusiasm in audiences of all ages. The Company is comprised of highly trained, professional dancers,
whose repertoire includes works influenced by West Virginia's rich cultural heritage and various cultures from across
the globe. WVDC is the only professional touring dance company in the history of the Mountain State. The company
has performed extensively in West Virginia and fourteen other states and Brazil. At the height of its touring season,
approximately 50,000 students are reached through the art of dance. For many students, the WVDC is their first exposure
to the arts.
It is the goal of the West Virginia Dance Company to empower students with the
truth that they are born with great imaginations that produce creativity and shape innovation.
Our
Mission
It is the mission of the WVDC to provide projects and performances at a statewide level that will
offer the best value and quality within the framework of West Virginia and 21st Century Learning Skills and multi-cultural
perspectives.
