Best Dance Company

Halifax Dance’s artistic administrator Tim Keenan says that technically, Halifax Dance is not a dance company, but a non-profit organization dedicated to the movement arts, with a membership of over 1,400 pairs of dancing feet (that’s 2,800 feet!). But with three dance companies in residence---Gwen Noah, Mocean Dance and Verve Mwendo---plus loads of classes for kids, youth, adults and professional dancers alike, we’ll give them the plaque. Plus, it will look great on the wall of their new digs in the Maritime Centre. 1505 Barrington, 422-2006
