Deeper Than Dance is a foundation dedicated to transforming the momentary happiness of participating in dance to happiness that can last a lifetime and even after that. Rather than simply teaching technique and choreography, we emphasize the growth of the thoughts, soul, and spirit as the core of enabling the physical body to create art. In order to grow in all areas we integrate stories, testimonies, and most importantly, the word of God into our classes, workshops, performances and various projects. As founder and artistic director Mariah Henry would say, “since God has given us talents, we must give them back to Him!” 

Transforming the music, energy, movement, and even meaning of dance, Deeper Than Dance aims to provide the means for dancers of all skill levels and ages to raise their level in both physical and spiritual aspects. Using all styles and given opportunities to perform, create new works, and projects, we aim to work with both local and even worldwide dancers, singers, and artists to make a history of receiving glory in the body and spirit possible.
