The mission of Sarasota Contemporary Dance (SCD) is to bring contemporary dance to the community through eclectic performance and educational programing while collaborating with artists and community groups to further enrich the human experience.
SCD consists of a diverse group of teaching artists with training ranging from social dance forms to western codified forms. These teaching artists are available for performances, master classes, and one-day workshops. These offerings can be designed to best serve the interest and needs of the teacher, school, and students. If SCD is asked to present a dance performance we would allocate time to offer a question and answer session with students and company members.
SCD enjoys working with the classroom teacher and administrators to provide various outreach and educational programs to populations of all ages, abilities, and backgrounds through specialized workshops, school residency opportunities, and in-school performances.

Sarasota Contemporary Dance “Behind the Curtain”
Elementary students (grades 3-5)
Attending a Sarasota Contemporary Dance dress rehearsal allows students a behind the scenes experience with a professional level dance company. This offering takes place in the Asolo’s Jane B Cook Theatre during one of Sarasota Contemporary Dance’s full dress rehearsals. We have three opportunities this season, (see available dates below).
Along with seeing a professional dance concert, the students will also be given the opportunity to meet some of the dancers and/or choreographers and to ask questions in a Q & A following the dress rehearsal. We would love to have you and your students come experience dance with us!
Available dates:
Length of session: 1 hour – 1.5 hours (depending on length of chosen show)
