Our Artistic Statement

CDMC recognizes that dance is not only a creative aesthetic and captivating performance art, but also one of the healing arts. Dance is also powerful for of heARTivism; it can transcend borders that divide places, dissolve the illusion of separation that divides people, and build conscious unity across our global community to create a world at peace with itself.
We believe everyone is a dancer; it is our birthright to move to the rhythm of our dreams, our heartbeat leads our feet in creating meaningful dances in a collaborative fashion, which communicate uplifting messages to the mind, body and spirit that raise consciousness and inspire change. We share a common passion for dance and purpose in healing through movement.
We believe that every person who is moving through their lives from a place of love inside is contributing to a global movement to co-create a world where peace, balance, and harmony are present.
