Our Mission
​
To authentically connect the community of SLO and beyond through the vehicle of dance and provide a warm and welcoming center point within the dance community.
​
My Why
​
NEXUS was created to provide a space where people can reconnect in a meaningful, authentic way—something we all need more than ever. I envisioned a place where the community could come together through the art of dance, experiencing its many benefits: enhancing physical and mental well-being, rediscovering self-confidence, building lasting connections, and most importantly, having FUN! NEXUS is more than a studio; it’s a welcoming home for everyone to truly feel a part of something special.”
The (Deeper) Why
​
So, why is this important? Culturally, dance is how we have shared our stories, processed emotion, embodied our values, forged identities… worshipped.
It is a timeless tool for interpersonal communication that rises above language, logic or time.
Without connecting to others, we can’t rise to achieve our greatest good or the best that we can be. If NEXUS can be the, (well…NEXUS), for connection then maybe we can help the community grow stronger together.
