Founded by Charlotte-based dance artist Audrey Baran in 2012, Baran Dance seamlessly blends bold physicality with thoughtful artistry. We create contemporary dance work that is accessible and exciting for wide audiences and are known for collaborating with local musical, visual and literary artists, crafting multimedia movement experiences. Baran Dance offers continuing education for emerging and evolving dance artists through open company classes and mentorship programs as well as outreach programs with local immigrant support organizations. Whether on stage, in the studio, or throughout the Charlotte community, we MOVE to move YOU.
