REFLECTIONS DANCE


Reflections Dance Company was founded in 2006 by Artistic Director and Choreographer Nichelle Bane, who’s vision is to bring inspiration to the stage with all genres of dance. The choreography brought to life by Reflections crosses the boundaries from commercial to theatrical. Reflections has been invited to participate in many reputable events like the Mix Match dance festival, Dancing For NED, the Mc Callum Theatre Choreography Festival in Palm Springs (2011-2014), as well as presenting work all around southern California. Nichelle’s choreography and dancers have also been seen dancing with Astra Dance Theater here in Los Angeles and at the booking dance festival at Jazz at Lincoln Center in New York City.
