Terpsichore Dance Collective

Terpsichore Dance Collective The Terpsichore Dance Collective offers diverse dance opportunities in performance and education to people of all skill levels and experience.

The Terpsichore Dance Collective is named after Terpsichore (terp-sick-oh-ree), the Greek muse of dance. This club, often nicknamed "Terp," aims to create an atmosphere in which anyone can learn about and participate in the art of dance, regardless of their skill level or experience. Terpsichore traditionally hosts formal shows at the end of each term in Harbach Theatre. This gives participants an

opportunity to choreograph and perform for the larger student body in a professional setting. Another yearly staple is the artist(s) in residency, in which trained performers visit the Knox campus to offer classes and workshops in a particular style of dance to anyone interested. Terp is committed to pursuing new, different, and exciting dance opportunities in partial fulfillment of our mission statement. During the 2012-2013 school year, dance classes were added to Terp's repertoire in the hopes of giving participants the chance to learn a new technique or to brush up on their skills. Some of the classes that have been presented include hip-hop, ballet, contemporary, dance conditioning, and improv. Terp is made possible with the help of our adviser, Jennifer Smith, Associate Professor of Dance at Knox College. We maintain relations with the Dance Program and Theatre Department.
