The mission of T2 Dance Company, formerly T2 Dance Project, is to enrich the independent dance scene. We achieve this by presenting high quality contemporary dance theatre on stage, on screen, and in non-traditional spaces, and through initiatives that provide unique choreographic opportunities and experiences to the community. We believe that working together with collaborators, independent dance artists, and cross-disciplinary artists creates unique and vibrant work, and allows for greater involvement in the arts for all.

We establish a platform that allows dancers, choreographers and collaborators to connect and share artistic sensibilities- honoring each other's uniquely personal experiences. Building site-specific performances for the natural world and the proscenium stage, we actively involve all voices throughout the creation/rehearsal process, promoting an equitable environment where artists can thrive. The amalgamation of these elements brought into a live performance experience is key to our purpose, showcasing the best of what our art form has to offer. In essence, we create the opportunity for dancers to join together and immerse themselves in exciting repertoire, reaching audiences of all sizes.
