About me
The Philadelphia Dance Company (PHILADANCO!) is a nonprofit organization that presents the highest quality of professional dance performance and cultivates the skills of emerging and professional dancers and choreographers in a nurturing environment, while increasing the appreciation of dance among its many communities. Across the nation and around the world, PHILADANCO! is celebrated for its innovation, creativity, and preservation of predominantly African-American traditions in dance.
Danco 3 (D/3) became part of the PHILADANCO! Legacy in 2006. This
youngest dance ensemble has been running strong ever since. D/3 was
created to give young dancers who are really serious about dance access to
performance opportunities and a chance to nurture their technique and
performance skills. D/3 dancers range from the ages of 13 to 16 and have the
option of moving on to D/2, PHILADANCO‘s apprentice company.
