   About DASSdance
Choreographer Daniel Wilkins, a graduate of School of American Ballet, founded DASSdance (formerly danielandsomesuperfriends) in 1996 after seeing a need for daring and innovative movement in the dance community. His own career included performing with Donald Byrd, Suzanne Farrell, Complexions, and Pittsburgh Ballet Theatre--a strong basis for creating his own style, called All-Terrain Dance.

All-Terrain Dance is a dynamic and visceral style that juxtaposes a variety of techniques, like modern, ballet, break-dancing, hip-hop, yoga, acrobatics, and martial arts, with diverse cultural elements from India, Europe, Urban America, and East Asia. The fluidity and attack that signals the intermixing of these vocabularies allows DASS to tackle movement with a comprehensive realism and intensity.

In collaboration with renowned visual artists, lighting designers, costume designers, and sound artists, Daniel's vision is the return of a Diaghilev-era renaissance in which artists and dancers combine to create multi-media performance spectaculars, showcasing some the most athletic, sexy dancers on the stage today.
