Happy International Dance Day!

“In my world, dance has been intricately interwoven into our lives and existence since earliest childhood. It has always been the key that unlocks human being’s communication with nature and all living beings. In my hometown, there is a saying: ‘If you have legs but cannot dance, you have wasted your life in vain.’ Dance is closely connected to nature and life. As far as I’m concerned, dance is one and the same with nature and life—that is the true essence of dance.” -Yang Liping in her statement for International Dance Day

Elizabeth Lentz-Hill grew up in Hawaiʻi and is happy to be home, dancing in the place she loves, after more than twenty years of experience performing, teaching, choreographing and promoting dance. She has toured France, Brazil, Mexico, and the U.S. with Tennessee Dance Theatre, Chicago Moving Company, Lucky Plush Productions, and Breakbone DanceCo., and performed works by Bill T. Jones, Doug Elkins, Twyla Tharp, and Charles Weidman.

Prior to returning to Hawaiʻi in 2018, Elizabeth co-founded two dance companies and two regional dance festivals on the continent, one to promote modern dance in Chicago and one for 7-12th grade dancers and their dance educators in Mississippi. She served as an Associate Professor of Dance at the University of Southern Mississippi (USM), where she taught ballet, modern, dance education, anatomy, choreography, and dance theory classes. While at USM, Elizabeth worked to bridge the Dance and Theatre Departments, including co-creating a full-length devised theatre work with funding from the National Endowment for the Arts and serving as Interim Chair for both departments. She holds a BA in Religion with a concentration in Women’s Studies from Carleton College, and an MFA in Dance from the University of Washington.

Through this she was able to perform works by Kiki Lucas, Gregory Dolbashian, Ruben Graciani, Shane O’hara, Stephanie Lupas, Jess Burgess and many more accredited artists. She recently designed and implemented a dance program at a middle school in South Carolina, where she taught for the last year and worked with diverse demographics, gaining insights on the power of art in youth.
