about emergent

Vision and Purpose

Emergent Dance Company was created for the alumnae of Ballet Etudes to provide professional performance opportunities to emerging dancers in our community, and to pay homage to alumnae and teachers of Huntington Academy of Dance as they emerge as professional dancers.

Emergent brings challenging choreographic work themed on current cultural issues or humanistic expressions through dance. Our pieces are performed in festivals throughout the Orange County and Los Angeles area. Our mission is to inspire, challenge, and enlighten those in our surrounding communities.
