SOLE Defined

SOLE Defined is a Washington, DC-based percussive dance company that fuses tap dance and body percussion with digital media to provide a multifaceted experience promoting an understanding and appreciation for Percussive Dance. Our mission is to raise awareness about social and economic issues directly affecting uninvested communities of color through historically informed performances, dance engagement activities, and art-integrated youth programming. We aim to archive percussive dance’s history and vocabulary while re-establishing it as a vital part of academia, movement studies, and concert dance.
