Gibney Dance has developed an innovative and effective program, Move to Move Beyond, that uses the transformative power of movement to make a difference in the lives of intimate partner and gender-based violence survivors.
Launched in 2000 in partnership with Sanctuary for Families, Move to Move Beyond provides a safe environment for building self-esteem through positive physical expression and has vividly demonstrated that movement, physical awareness and creativity can play a remarkable role in healing trauma.
The program has since expanded to include Safe Horizon, Barrier Free Living, Sakhi, Community Health Action of Staten Island among many other New York City organizations. Over 365 Move to Move Beyond workshops are offered annually to individuals and families who are on journeys to healthier futures. Open to anyone. No dance background necessary.
Amy Miller, Senior Company Director, will be facilitating.

IRT Theater is a grassroots laboratory for independent theater and performance in New York City, providing space and support to a new generation of artists. Tucked away in the old Archive Building in Greenwich Village, IRTs mission is to build a community of emerging and established artists by creating a home for the development and presentation of new work. Some of the artists we have supported include Young Jean Lee, Reggie Watts and Mike Daisey.
This program is supported, in part, by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs, New York State Council on the Arts and The Nancy Quinn Fund, a project of ART-NY.
