Soul Street Dance, a company from Houston (Spring Branch) which was created by former members of Fly Dance Company, is unique for their way of incorporating different styles of street dance. Under the direction of Javier Garcia, Soul Street presents a new era in dance. While pushing the artistic boundaries in street dance, they maintain the true essence of the culture.
The history of the company dates back to 1996, as a self-taught street crew competing for recognition in the Houston area. They quickly caught the attention of the artistic director of Fly Dance Company. They then became the companys principal dancers and helped turn Fly into a national touring sensation.
Soul Street concerts consist of high-energy movement that will keep you at the edge of your seat. The music is an eclectic mix ranging from hip-hop to classical. Its a show that will make you laugh and keep audiences of all ages entertained.
In conjunction with concerts, Soul Street offers educational and outreach performances that have taken audiences of more than 300,000 by storm across the country.
From Soul Street Agent Jeannette Gardner: Two years ago, a representative from the State Departments Office of Cultural Affairs saw a showcase by Soul Street Dance at the APAP Conference in New York City and started the process of soliciting worldwide embassies to consider them for the Arts Enjoys touring program. Consequently, they were chosen to perform in three different countries all part of the former Soviet Union. They will be featured at festivals in Armenia, Georgia and Azerbaijan from May 21 to June 13 and July 19 to July 27, 2014. Im sure they will have many fascinating experiences to share with your theatres, schools and communities after serving as cultural ambassadors for the United States.
