Dancers Amplified partners with DANC to provide anti-racism resources and information for equity, diversity, inclusion, and access policies to the dance community beyond elite ballet companies and on an international scale.

Dancegeist
A new, free, online publication for every sector of the dance community. The magazine is meant to be a place to dissolve the lines of separation that so often pit members of the dance community against one another. We believe not in going to a community or person and finding out about their stories, but in letting communities and people tell their own stories. Dancegeist Magazine hopes that by creating space for historically overlooked people to tell their stories, we can create a new dance industry that focuses on the power of community and political engagement.
