These 14-member dance groups composed of young students from various Quezon City schools have been honing their craft from a very young age. They are now marking their fifth year as a formal dance organization under the Erehwon Art Foundation. The Foundation is a nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting and providing opportunities especially for marginalized artists in both visual and performing arts.
The dance group performs various Philippine folk dances, as well as selected contemporary dances. The group has performed in various dance events, including those of the Cultural Center of the Philippines’ Pasinaya, Friends of Cultural Concerns of the Philippines (FCCP) events, Bayanihan Folklorica, and many more. It has been part of the program for the Korean and Mexican Folkoric groups, as well as entertained audiences for various meetings and conferences.
The dancers all come from economically challenged families, and dance is their breather, their inspiration to achieve more in life. For tickets, call 0999-4962647 or visit the Erehwon Dance Company facebook site.
