Fund a Move !!!

Broken Rhythms LOVES to fire up the core, glutes, legs, and quadriceps! Grounded movement is at the heart of Rhythmical Contemporary and can be found throughout much of Broken Rhythms’ choreography. If you see a dancer holding a deep squat or lunge during a performance, know that it takes tremendous strength, endurance, and control—and you helped make that happen.

The Bite is an important movement motif in Broken Rhythms’ newest work. Also known as the Strike, the Bite begins with a sharp, sudden impact followed by a slower, deliberate pull away. It can be performed with the arms or legs and is inspired by the feeding behaviour of blood-feeding insects. Within the choreography, the Bite often symbolizes a dancer feeling threatened, hungry, or driven by instinct, creating a physical expression of vulnerability, survival, and desire.

The Worm An evolution of Broken Rhythms’ signature Cannon work, The Worm is a connected ensemble movement in which all of the dancers are physically linked. The movement begins with one dancer and is passed seamlessly from body to body, creating the illusion that the entire group is one living organism. The result is a fluid wave of motion that highlights the company’s emphasis on connection, rhythm, and ensemble storytelling.
