RACE Dance

RACE is guided by its mission to ignite social awareness and change through dance performance, education, and engagement. Founded by a Korean immigrant, Hui Poos sought to challenge societal perceptions of what dance companies look like and their artistic content. As a result, RACE has redefined the traditional dance company structure and organizational models by developing a collective of creative leaders and professional dancers that evolve throughout the performance season. By doing this, RACE amplifies diverse voices within the community, ensuring representation on stage and in creative projects.
