Mission Statement:
“Empowering Black Men Through Movement, Open to All Who Seek Healing.”
Meridians is a somatic healing dance company rooted in the power of collective movement through hip-hop, modern, and contemporary dance.
Our mission is to create transformative spaces for healing, with a special focus on the empowerment of BIPOC men, providing a safe environment for self-expression, identity exploration, and personal growth.
While our work is grounded in the experiences of Black men and BIPOC communities, we recognize that the healing journey is universal.
We invite individuals of all races, genders, and backgrounds to join us in this exploration of movement, healing, and artistic expression.
Through our workshops, performances, and creative process, we aim to address the underrepresentation issues of the BIPOC man. However, we welcome everyone who resonates with our mission to share in the power of movement as a means to heal, connect, and uplift one another in a more compassionate and inclusive world.
