“Selwyn has managed to produce sincere, personal works year after year for two decades—no small feat.” — The New Yorker

In the last three years, we have grown from 25 dance education programs and 20 school partners per year to 125 programs and 85 school partners per year. In 2024-2025, Notes in Motion served 22,000 students delivering 8,000 program sessions throughout NYC. Every day, we are practicing the enormous power of dance as a healing force in our audiences, in our studios, and in our classrooms.

After 25 years as a nomadic organization, we are thrilled to announce our new home in Tribeca at 412 Broadway. The Amanda Selwyn Dance Studio will be a home for both our professional company Amanda Selwyn Dance Theatre as well as for Notes in Motion dance education programs. We will offer a variety of dance, yoga, fitness, and community programs, designed for people of all ages and abilities, including young dancers, families, college students, and emerging professionals. With our own home studio, we will be positioned to advance our cross-pollinated programs between performance, education, and community engagement. Your tax-deductible donation will support our renovation which will include sprung dance flooring, theatrical lighting, curtains, sound system, kitchenette, locker room, and storage. Please consider supporting this next chapter of our organization!

Investing in arts and culture is essential. From our inception, we have been driven by the vision that you cannot create dance in the now unless you are thinking about audiences of the future. For our 25th Anniversary, we presented an evening length work Awaken May 8-10, 2025 at New York Live Arts. Awaken weaved original material with resonant choreography from Selwyn’s 25 years of rich repertory. The piece explored the struggle between distraction, a quest for certainty, and living in an embodied present. We need your help to create this vital choreographic work in the now and to serve and support future audiences. Please consider a monthly or quarterly pledge of support — you can create an ongoing impact on the landscape of dance and arts education.
With gratitude,
Amanda Selwyn
Artistic/Executive Director
