The Modern Dancers' Co-Laboratory is a cooperative made up of professional modern dancers, teachers, performers, choreographers and facilitators who have a desire to share their talents and knowledge with other professionals as well as create new opportunities and build audiences.  The Co-Laboratory is not a dance company or studio but is a group of artists who wish to foster new work, new opportunities and new audiences for the betterment of modern dance in San Antonio. The Co-Laboratory also acts as a touchbase for contemporary dancers who are new to the San Antonio area as well as those who are already living in the area and have become disconnected from modern dance and are seeking a contemporary dance home or community.

Our goals:

01. Encourage healthy networking within the contemporary dance community
02. Nurture and facilitate new work
03. Create opportunities for professional performances
04. Create opportunities for modern dance workshops and master classes
05. Develop an audience for modern dance in San Antonio

Member Benefits:

01. A professional level modern dance class once a week offered to members free of charge
02. Opportunities to talk and brainstorm about choreography
03. Opportunities to create new choreography
04. Opportunities to talk with other modern dance teachers about curriculum and technique
05. Network with other professionals concerning performance venues and opportunities

Guidelines:
