Ryne's Oklahoma City Senior Session

Ryne is a senior dance performance major at UCO, and is getting ready for his graduation!  Between finishing one last semester, auditioning for companies in the spring, and preparing to move to a new city, he has a whole new adventure in store.  We traveled all around downtown Oklahoma City to show off his eyes and astounding talent!  

Congrats Ryne, may you travel the world and dance while doing it.

Oklahoma Contemporary Dance Festival

This past weekend, I participated in the 8th Annual Oklahoma Contemporary Dance Festival hosted by Perpetual Motion Dance Company.  Choreographers range from Perpetual Motion company members, dance studio owners, choreographers from New York City, Race dance company members, and professional dance educators.

Perpetual Motion, with the Oklahoma Arts Council, and generous donors, produce OCDF every summer to provide an opportunity for both teens and adults to perform in Oklahoma.  Taken from their website:

 The Festival will include performances by 24 local dancers selected by audition who will perform choreography by Oklahoma-based choreographers  Ashley Untrauer, Cody Dean, Brandi Kelley, Maria Krey, Amy Nevius, Kayla Jenkins, New York choreographer Shannon Nash-Spicer, and Texas choreographer Jennifer Giles.  These works will be performed in the concerts on July 25th and 26th at 7:30 pm. 
In addition, Perpetual Motion Dance will perform two works from the 2014 concert "KINETIC."

Perpetual Motion gives monthly aerial dance workshop seminars that quickly sell out.  Weekly aerial dance classes resume September 24th.
