Moxie Dance Project
"Where Every Movement is Dance"
What is Moxie Dance Project?
Moxie Dance Project is an organization dedicated to the development and promotion
of the Art of Dance by presenting creative, thought provoking, entertaining, and challenging
dance works for the community, as well as participating in activities for the advancement
of Dance Education in Louisiana.
The Moxie Dance Project performs at various venues on campus and off campusthroughout
the semester.
ACDFA
Every year the Moxie Dance Project attends the American College Dance Festival. Each
university can bring a maximum of two choreographed works performed and choreographed
by students and faculty members. There are approximately eight nights of showcases
throughout the duration of festival. Ten to twelve of all of the pieces performed
are chosen to attend and perform in the prestigious gala on the final night, the highest
honor of the festival. The recent Southeastern graduate, Ashli Tallo, choreographed
a solo "Leaves A Space" performed by Kaleigh Brandt and Southeastern faculty member,
Dana Brewer-Plazanic, choreographed a piece entitled "Fetching" performed by Kaleigh
Brandt, Ashli Tallo, and Giara Major. Both of the works were chosen for the Gala.
This is very unusual that two works, from the same university, were selected. This
reflects highly on our organization, faculty, students and performers. Southeastern
received this same honor of having both pieces selected for the "Gala" in 2010 when
Nicole Judson presented "Vague Variations" and Jeoffery Harris presented "River Rise".
Both of these student pieces were selected for the "Gala" concert and Jeoffery Harris'
piece was one of 3 pieces selected for the National Presentation at the John F. Kennedy
Center in Washington D.C. in May of 2010. This is an extremely high honor for Southeastern's
Dance Program
