Spank Dance is dedicated to creating contemporary dance performances that stimulate the mind of the audience offering them an unexpected, fresh perspective about the world around them. It is Spank Dance's core belief that dance can provide profound experiences unlike any other art form and this contributes to a heathy and caring society

As community outreach Spank Dance strives to present quality contemporary dance that explores diverse concepts within the movement arts. We encourage experimentation from local and regonal choreographers to stretch their own ideas of dance, collaboration, and performance excellence. We seek to engage the audience through fresh new ideas that are challenging and fun, with a strong emphasis on community building through each individual voice.
