​Alive Dance Collective started dancing as a unit in 2014. Brenna Banister, a lifelong dancer, was looking for a way to create meaningful work with a group of talented and dedicated dancers. Today, the group works together to create and present original contemporary choreography in the Boston area. 

Alive Dance Collective is a group committed to dance as an outlet, resource, and connector. It is through dance that we connect with each other, the community and ourselves. Through contemporary movement, we gain a deeper understanding of our life experiences and support each other’s journeys. Using relatable and original movement, we allow the audience to recognize their own vulnerability. Our work addresses aspects of the human experience that are not always seen, but felt. ​We dance because it makes us feel Alive!​
