Artistic Director Della Cowall

The Née Danse Company is a professional modern dance repertory company dedicated to the presentation and education of dance as a performance art and cultural phenomenon. Educated and professionally-trained dancers perform a broad range of contemporary choreography by Artistic Director Della Cowall, and Guest Artists. Past choreographers and dance artists include Ben Munisteri, Hernando Cortez, Peter Pucci, Ara Fitzgerald, and others. Since 1994, the Company has presented dance performances in formal venues, community centers, and schools for thousands of appreciative audience members.

In January 2005, The Née Danse Company acquired two large studios that enable Company members and experienced dance instructors opportunities to offer an alternative approach to dance instruction. Professional dance educators or supervised emerging teachers introduce progressive movement vocabulary, enhanced by historical and contemporary information. Each class builds on previously introduced material and students are guided toward outside resources for further study.

Emphasis is placed on progressive physical skill development and appreciation of dance as a art form.

**Please note: The Née Danse Company does not coordinate a formal recital with expensive costumes and admission fees. Instead, parents, family members, and friends are invited to observe and share in their child’s progress during the last class of each session. Community performing opportunities will be available to those interested youth and adults on an “as available” basis.
