The Denver Independent Choreographers' Project (DICP) assists professional dancers in a transition into choreography, offering services at affordable costs, and without obligation. The goal of the DICP is to allow independent dance choreographers a chance to create and show their original works to the general public in a professional setting, using professional-caliber dancers, and leaving with the tools to obtain employment in dance choreography.
The DICP supports professional and post-professional dancers in their first attempts at choreography as a step towards career transition, as well as non-affiliated choreographers. This 501(c)(3) non-profit organization provides an outlet for both dancers and choreographers by providing fully-funded performance opportunities; expert feedback and critique to choreographers; teaching opportunities; and a professional videography of each work of choreography. The DICP also offers portfolio creation and other dance-related services at a low cost, with the intention of making tools available for the dancer and choreographer to establish themselves as employable talent within the professional dance community.
The DICP benefits the professional or post-professional dancer by offering a creative and professional outlet for maintaining or rebuilding performance stature. In addition, the DICP provides working and non-working dancers in the Denver area the opportunity to work with up-and-coming choreographers in professional dance performances, providing rehearsal and performing experience, as well as a final documentation of their performances, which can be used for future employment. As well, The DICP offers master classes throughout the year, with innovative teachers, in multiple disciplines.
The DICP provides choreographers a free-form outlet for their original works, capable dancers on which to set their pieces, and necessary exposure to the dance community through publicity, professional critiques, performance opportunities, and video recordings of their finished products. As a result, the DICP supports dancers who hope to transition into choreography, independent choreographers seeking resources for their talents, and underutilized dancers in the Denver area seeking performance opportunities.
The DICP offers occasional teaching opportunities to choreographers who have presented works with our organization. Choreographers who would like to teach a class may contact the DICP for master classes or class series teaching options.
Benefits of teaching for the DICP include:
~ Teaching experience for your resume
~ A place to experiment with new ideas - anything goes
~ Get to know local dancers and see how they dance in your style
~ For established teachers, bring your class to a new audience, and advertise your current teaching locations
