@limondance is #Onstage at The Joyce!

In our latest Perspectives on a Dance series, Artistic Director Dante Puleio provides insight into his curation of the season and how each piece reflects Limón’s personality and his legacy.

“In creating this program, I’ve been drawn to what I know of Limón and his feeling of living on the periphery as an outsider while still holding strong to the belief in the power of community.”

Dancer and choreographer José Limón pioneered dramatic techniques that continue to influence modern dance. His legacy is carried on by the company he founded, @limondance, which is celebrating its 80th Anniversary this year. @donnahanover stopped by a rehearsal and spoke with Artistic Director @dantepuleio and dancer @olivia_mozie to find out more.

A full day of training and discovery unfolded earlier this month at the 2026 ICONS Dance Festival Master Classes, bringing dancers into the room with leading artists across the industry.

BH2, Ballet Hispánico’s second company @theballethispanicoschool, began with a ballet barre led by Director Blanca Huertas @blancahuertas1, followed by learning company repertoire from “Sombrerísimo” by Annabelle Lopez Ochoa @annabellelopezochoa, guided by Rodney Hamilton @jetset1312.

Limón2 @limondance came next, with Artistic Director Dante Puleio @dantepuleio leading a class rooted in Limón technique, exploring weight, breath, and intention.

The Joffrey Concert Group @joffreyconcertgroup closed the experience with Artistic Director Bradley Shelver @bradshelver, who guided dancers through movement phrases and repertoire from his works “And The Things That Remain” and “3114,” offering insight into his process and approach.

Across every class, dancers engaged with different movement languages, building versatility, deepening technique, and connecting through a shared commitment to the work. We are grateful to all of the artists, faculty, and dancers who made this experience possible.
