Amanda Selwyn Dance Theatre/Notes in Motion has announced it has a NEW HOME in Downtown Manhattan! The new Amanda Selwyn Dance Studio will be a home for both our professional company, Amanda Selwyn Dance Theatre, and Notes in Motion’s dance education programs.

After 25 years as a nomadic organization, we have secured a lease on a multi-purpose dance studio at 412 Broadway in Tribeca. The studio will serve as rehearsal space, informal performance space, event space, space for workshops, classes, educational programs, community building, and office. Our design plans focus on versatility to create easy transitions between programs. With our own home studio, we are able to advance our cross-pollinated programs between performance, education, and community engagement. Our studio events will engage audiences in the creative process, engage pre-professional and emerging artists, and expand the reach of our dance education programs while creating a home base to deepen the company’s creative and acting work.

The renovation will include the following components:

• Studio lighting – energy efficient LED color changing theater lights, lighting console

• Dance floor – sound-absorbing layered floor with Harlequin Flexity sprung floor on top and permanent cascade surface

• Ceilings – Sound insulation

• Curtains – create optimal performance opportunities

• Sound system

• Pantry with dishwasher/sink

• Changing rooms/showers/washer/dryer

• Storage areas

• Entrance area with shoe and coat rack
