Welcome to the Dance Stories Amateur Company!
Our Stories, Our Movement
Dance is more than just movement; it’s a language of the heart. At Dance Stories, we believe that every individual carries a unique story waiting to be told through dance. We are a collective of passionate dancers, united by a shared love of expression and a commitment to creating authentic, inclusive performances. Join us as we explore the power of movement to connect, inspire, and transform.
Our Vision
Dance is a powerful language that emerges from within. At the heart of our dance company lies a commitment to authentic expression and collaborative creation. We believe that our unique experiences, backgrounds, and perspectives are the rich stuff our dance stories are made of.
By offering a space of openness, trust, and mutual respect, we empower each dancer to listen deeply within themselves, uncovering the raw emotions and stories that arise there. Together, we transform these personal narratives into shared pieces of art that resonate deeply with our audiences.
Our strength is our diversity. We celebrate the richness of human experiences, highlighting our differences while finding common ground. Through collaboration and experimentation we bridge divides, creating performances that are as individual as they are universal.
How It All Began
Dance Stories was born from a passion for dance theater and a desire to share stories that move people. Founded by Anita Seiverth, our journey began in 2022 with a simple belief: dance is for everyone. Our commitment to this belief has shaped our inclusive amateur ensemble and lead to collaborative creation, giving space for our unique stories to shine.
