I am Loris, the Artistic Director of Beckles Dancing Company

With your help we can present the South Dallas Dance Festival! You will be thrilled by the performances of 143 dancers, in dances by 29 choreographers. And a special appearance by the 2025 Scholarship recipient.

The festival will be spread out over 3 performances, including a Youth Dance Showcase and 3 master-classes, 2 of which already given in Dallas ISD and an Open Class at South Dallas Cultural Center!

All donations you make will bring us closer to sharing the joy of dance with you!

(1) Keep the festival accessible to everyone

(2) Provide fair compensation to dancers and teaching artists
