BOOSTmeUP.

BOOSTmeUP is a part the the BOOST dance festival.

the BOOST dance festival has emerged as a fixture for Seattle dancers, choreographers, and audiences alike. Since BOOST began in 2010 the festival has continued to grow as it has presented the works of Seattle and Northwest modern dance artists.

2014 ushers in a new program within the festival, BOOSTmeUP! A program specifically designed to offer young dancers and groups of a pre-professional level the opportunity to perform in a professionally produced festival alongside their peers. BOOSTmeUP! is virtually a mini-BOOST for aspiring young dancers and their directors. BOOST producer, Marlo Martin, asks "Why wait until adulthood to begin the development of community in the Seattle dance community? Why not create a bridge between the many wonderful schools, studios, and conservatories in Seattle? We can begin by educating our young dancers on the importance of community and offering them the experience of learning from a diverse set of teachers, choreographers, and fellow dancers". BOOSTmeUP! dancers will perform in two matinees and will be invited to an open dress/preview for the professional division of the BOOST dance festival.

In its inaugural year BOOSTmeUP welcomes:
Seattle Youth Dance Collective
an initiative of Velocity Dance Center & Seattle Theatre Group
Bellevue Dance Company from Bellevue College
thePROGRAM from eXit SPACE
