COMMITMENT

    The VRDC's Board of Directors share a creative vision and financial commitment to the dancers in order to provide Southern New Jersey an enlightening cultural experience through dance.  In this respect, the VRDC and its Board of Directors have a cyclical relationship.  The dancers provide the talent and sweat equity while the Board toils to attain the financial commitment behind the schemes that provides choreographers, master teachers, costumes, and performance theaters.  These individual components are intertwined, orchestrating a stellar performance, 

ARTISTIC VISION

The diversified Board of Directors from our tri-state area and its Artistic Directors see dance as a visual interpretation of music.  Dance is the only art form wherein the human body is the art.  It is the loftiest, the most moving, and the most beautiful of the arts because it is a means of communication.  Dance is a balance between perfection and freedom.  Because of this strong belief in what dance can do, we stress human values in our dance and explore contemporary themes as well as preserve the classics.
