Under the direction of Davi Rodrigues, our professional company exists to give dancers a home—a place to belong, exist, and evolve artistically. Operating as a project-based ensemble, we provide our artists with 100% free artistic development, continuous creation periods, and mainstage performance opportunities. Here, dancers are supported with consistency and genuine care as we bring groundbreaking contemporary works to life.
Company Pillars & Practicum
Project-Based Structure
We operate on a flexible, project-based model. When grants and funds are secured, we offer paid performance opportunities to our dancers.
Guaranteed Practicum Space
Even without project funding, Lamondance provides dedicated space for daily practicum—supporting continuous growth and exploration regardless of funding cycles.
The Bridge Program Integration
Our Bridge Program serves as the natural apprentice stream for the professional company. Dancers in this transitional program gain invaluable company experience by rehearsing alongside the main ensemble, learning company repertoire, and participating in full-scale mainstage productions.
