PDP's Dance "Context"
History:
. . . . . . Paradigm Dance Project (PDP) was founded in May 1999 and received nonprofit status (501)(c)(3)) in July 2000. Meghan Cooley, Amanda Sowerby, and Alysia Woodruff co-founded PDP and continue to serve as co-directors of the organization. Each of the founders possesses extensive dance training, performing, and teaching experience. PDP evolved as a joint initiative among three graduate students in the University of Utah graduate program in Modern Dance and was given organizational support in its first year by Repertory Dance Theatre of Salt Lake City, Utah. PDP's mission is to foster creativity, expression, and education through movement. PDP provides access to dance for underserved populations, as well as emerging, experimental, and nontraditional dance artists through outreach classes, workshops, and performing opportunities.
