    Interface experiments

    We are continuing to experiment with the ExploreDance.com home page design. Some of our readers have told us that the slide show, which used to be at the top of this page, caused the page to jump around. It doesn't do this on the machines we have tested (it used to, but we thought we fixed the problem), but html sometimes acts differently on different browsers, so it is possible. For now, we have taken the slide show off of the home page. If you would like to see the slide show, go to the alternate home page.

    Our Mission

    A web magazine for dancers of all sorts.

    ExploreDance.com is a web magazine that tells compelling stories about dance. We aim to be the New Yorker of dance. We want to move the discussion beyond steps, beyond patterns, even beyond technique. We want to engage readers in an exploration of the trends and important ideas which lie at the heart of dance. This exploration will invite the novice and the seasoned dancer alike. The magazine will be rooted in partner dance, since this is my background and my passion, but will actively reach beyond to embrace the larger world of dance.
