After 20 seasons of SoulEscape we have experienced so much together. From the Professional Performances, Summer & Winter Events, Fall Residencies, Professional Intensives, and In-Studio Intensives, we are grateful for all who have been a part of our journey.
At all of our events we strive to create a place that is freeing, while dancers forge their own path and explore their art in new ways. We believe in helping students open up to themselves and as well as others, and we aim to make the SoulEscape experience available to all dancers who are willing to take part. The 2024 Fall Tour will be a community collaboration offered in four cities.
Orlando.FL (sept 7-8)
Springfield.MO (nov 2-3)
Chicago.IL (tba)
Austin.TX (tba)
Come find your roots with us this fall.
community
We offer the opportunity for you and your team to start your season off strong, set team and personal goals, and encourage others in your community you may see throughout your season.
mentors/journaling
SE company members will help guide dancers through classes, side by side. Company members will serve as mentors to an assigned group of students each weekend. Within the mentor groups dancers will be led through journaling prompts, have the opportunity to ask questions, and gain a better understanding of our process. Mentor group check ins throughout the weekend are critical in making the mind-body connections we all need as humans. Dancers are always welcome to step aside and jot down any pertinent moment during their time with us. At SE, we prioritize journaling thoughts and ideas, which allows us to revisit our experiences even after our time together is finished.
extended class time
Diving deep into our classwork is important to us. We feel that it is in class where we truly find ourselves as artists. With extended class times, dancers will be encouraged to patiently approach their work and finish strong. Longer classes allow us to explore, see and appreciate others around us, and make mistakes and try again.
team building sessions
We understand that being united with your team is integral to having a healthy and positive season. We will be offering the first 4 studios who register 40+ dancers an opportunity for a private team building session with Justin, Rose and the SE company for your dancers. We will set team goals, get to know each other deeper, and find common interests while working together.
