Why do you love dancing with Spaces of Fontana?

"Dancing with Spaces of Fontana is such a special experience. In a world filled with division, I love creating work that uplifts, inspires, and fosters human connection.

 

As a busy mom, I deeply treasure any time I get to spend in the studio. I love coming into this creative space that is welcoming, supportive, and genuine.
 

Each rehearsal and performance with Spaces of Fontana is a chance to create authentic art filled with meaning and joy." - Nicole

favorite piece?

I loved performing "Rooted" this year! The creation process was a whirlwind, but the inspiration, stories, and images we used were just so lovely, personal, and relatable.

It's definitely something I look forward to revisiting in the future!

I see hope in...

"...the way humans create art. We use it as a way to speak up, to express our deepest selves, and to find all the ways we truly are the same."
