//Urban Youth Dance Project//
Urban Youth Dance Project (UYDP) is a pilot program of Velocity that brings together leading contemporary dance practitioners, from Seattle and beyond, with Seattle youth passionate about the arts and their communities.
The Urban Youth Dance Project supports Velocity’s mandate to be on the leading edge in supporting new generations of dance artists, and our belief that democracy in action means that anyone with the desire to dance has the opportunity to fulfill that desire. Velocity’s teaching artists encourage students to approach dance as artists and explorers—using dance to be physical, have fun, question, collaborate and create. Classes and projects may culminate in performances and screenings of students work.
Velocity Dance Center is committed to providing quality education to dancers at all stages of their development beginner through professional, from their teens to the golden years.
