AIRDANCE is a Philippine dance company composed of choreographers, professional dancers and dance teachers trained in various forms, including jazz, hip-hop, breakdance, martial arts, modern, and classical ballet. Through a fusion of styles, the company is geared towards a Modern/Contemporary performing art, exploring the limitless possibilities that their individual and collective talents can achieve.
Airdance's first major concert, "Indios Bravos" held last February 26, 2004, was met with acclaim for its innovative telling of Rizal's travels in relation to the struggles of today's OFW's. The show was restaged last June 6, 2005, for the French Spring Manila 2005 celebrations in cooperation with the French Embassy Manila.
The company was awarded as the "Best Young Contemporary Dance Theater Company in the Philippines" when it won the 3rd Mindanao Modern Dance Competition in Koronadal City, South Cotabato last July 2004. Airdance was part of the Philippine delegation that opened the World Expo 2005 in Nagoya, Japan. The company also represented the Philippines in the 7th Asia Arts Festival held in Foshan, Guandong, China held last November, 2005.
Airdance was one of the leading companies in the celebration of the International Dance Week with the Contemporary Dance Map 2005 and 2006. Its featured show, "R-18: Bold Contemporary Dance" (2005), was applauded for its varied and experimental pieces. Airdance’s “Carmen de la Cruz”, a Pinoy take on Bizet’s Carmen, was a featured show in the recently concluded “WiFi Body: Philippine Independent Contemporary Dance Festival 1” held last August 17-20 at the Cultural Center of the Philippines.
The company has been operating its Dance School and conducting its annual Summer Dance Workshop at its studio in order to bring dance training to amateur and serious dance enthusiasts. Our company members have participated in dance workshops and conferences in the United States, United Kingdom, Japan, and Austria. The company has also been involved in numerous commercial endeavors such as corporate productions, musical events, fashion shows, concerts, product launches and movies.
Having established itself as one of the country's pioneering Contemporary Dance companies, Airdance is celebrating its fifth year with “BODY POLITICS: A Season of New Dance”, a showcase of original and experimental choreographies, at its dance studio-theater at the Outlet Yard, 1480 Quezon Ave., Quezon City, from July to September 2006.
