Shows with Sizzle!

Let our dancers add “zing” to your special event!

DIT has performed and produced shows for the Kennedy Center, the DC Convention Center, the Capital One Arena (a 20,000-seat sports arena), Red Carpet Galas, government offices, and parties and events both large and small.  The DanceInTime teams have performed for public and private evens in DC, Baltimore, Miami, New York, Puerto Rico, Philadelphia, San Francisco, and Miami and beyond!

DanceInTime has produced many Hispanic Heritage Month Shows for schools, offices, libraries, and organizations which are fun, enriching, and educational.  Programs are available in multiple formats—“in person,” live online, and as a pre-recorded video. These can include dance instruction, performances, and information on Latin dances.  We can explain the difference between Salsa, Merengue, Bachata and Cha cha music and then ask the audience to guess which dance is being performed! This program was originally developed for a Kennedy Center show, and you can see clips of it here: youtu.be/MIxF9Y50XY8.  Barbara Bernstein has been a keynote speaker as well.   Click here for a list of DIT’s Hispanic Heritage program venues. More info about this and other Heritage Months is here.

Danceintime offers a "Women Take the Lead” program on women’s movement toward equality and how that is reflected in the arts. This is suitable for Women's History Month and Women's Equality Day (August 26), etc.   The program has been done both in person and online. It includes remarks about women’s changing roles throughout history and how “art imitates life” by reflecting those changes.  Women both lead and follow in this dance program, and ladies in the audience can learn the leader’s part during any instruction. This program is empowering and educational---and of course, fun! More info about Heritage Months is here, or feel free to contact Barb.

Our DIT pros trained a sports writer for the Washington Post and ABC’s Weatherman for a local dance competition.

Got a dance project? Danceintime is happy to put together a unique program for any event and budget. Programs can be done online or in-person. Barb and her dance team welcome requests such as workshops, performances, speaking engagements, and more. Examples include:

• Dance lessons or workshops for groups or individuals

• Wedding dance instruction for bride and groom or others

• Dance demonstrations and instruction for Hispanic Heritage Month and Women’s History Month programs

• “Book Signing and Discussion” events for Barb’s Salsa and Rueda de Casino Guidebook

• Musical entertainment including dance shows and singing performances for events such as birthday or anniversary parties, quinceanera preparation, wedding reception/shower entertainment, holiday programs or other celebrations

• Team-building programs that utilize dance activities—for schools, offices, churches, businesses, or other organizations

• Instruction in line dances, ballroom dances, and some ethnic dances for International Nights or related celebrations

• Cross-training dance exercises for athletes, designed to build team spirit and enhance skills that apply to both dancers and athletes (e.g. fast footwork and agility, coordination, and muscle isolation)

• “Arts Integration Programs” that blend academic lessons with dance instruction. Examples include using the beats per minute of a song to calculate the length of choreography needed for a piece of music; applying “Circle Geometry” lessons to dancers spaced evenly around a circle; and creating Social Studies lessons around the theme of Latin dancing, etc.
