DANA FISCH & UNDERTOE DANCE PROJECT

Undertoe Dance Project fuses the artistry of contemporary jazz dance with the percussive rhythms of tap dance. Under the artistic direction of Dana Fisch, the movement is athletic yet graceful, aggressive yet smooth and challenges the conventional definitions of tap and jazz dance. Since its inception in early 2008, the company has been presented in Fertile Ground (Long Island City, NY), The Choreographer's Canvas (New York, NY), West Coast Swing/Hustle/Salsa Festival (Stamford, CT), Silk City Arts Festival (Paterson, NJ) and The 27th Annual Downtown Dance Festival (New York, NY). In the fall of 2008, Undertoe implemented its first arts-in-education program at Northside Catholic Academy in Brooklyn, NY.

Founder/Artistic Director Dana Fisch is an honors graduate of Oklahoma City University with a degree in Dance Management whose other choreography credits include: Push Factor Dance Company, Off-Broadway rock opera The Capital Mall, Cabaret @ The Cave, DanceNow Harlem, New Dance Group Exchange, House of the Roses (a volunteer organization), and Oasis (chashama). Dana was a founding member of Push Factor Dance Company in NYC, was the resident tap instructor for DanzJam (Conventions & Competitions), works as a judge and teaching artist for NJ Elite Dance Competitions & Conventions and is currently a member of the NJ Tap Dance Ensemble.
