Move the World

WHO WE ARE:

We dance to MOVE THE WORLD.

MOVETHEWORLD is a non-profit youth dance company that performs original pieces about today’s critical issues. The youth that join our family are given an education in dance & utilize this education to raise awareness for causes like bullying, plastic pollution, youth homelessness, fair wages, & ocean conservation.

A NOTE FROM OUR DIRECTOR:

"My deepest passion is to use art to say what words cannot. Dance effects lasting change in the heart which leads to powerful change in the world. We are honored to perform 2 pieces at THE PARLIAMENT OF WORLD RELIGIONS:
1. Celebrating Refugees  
2. More-Ocean-Less-Plastic.

Connecting to you-connecting to the world, that's what we're about. Let's use the great power of art to MOVE THE WORLD forward to a sustainable future!"
-Cecilie Stuart
