Established in 1984, Dance New Amsterdam has provided dance education and performance opportunities for emerging and established artists. Dance New Amsterdam offers classes, certification courses,
artistic residencies, and studio and administrative subsidies. Dance New Amsterdam, which was formally known as Dance Space Center, was created by five choreographers- Laurie DeVito, Michael Geiger, Danny
Pepitone, Lynn Simonson, and Charles Wright who were committed to establishing a space where any artist could come, learn, develop, and perform.
Since its inception, Dance New Amsterdam has showcased work from some of the prominent dance artists today including Sean Curran, David Dorfman, Monica Bill Barnes, Wally Cardona, Nora Chipaumire, Robert Battle, Bill Shannon, Stephen Petronio, Jorge "Fabel" Pabon, Ronald K. Brown, Mark Morris, and Urban Bush Women.
Dance New Amsterdam's 25,000 square foot space located in The Sun Building in Lower Manhattan includes a 130-seat theater, six dance and rehearsal spaces, and two gallery spaces used for exhibitions and receptions.
