Artistic Statement

Building Community Through Dance

At the heart of Janice Rosario's choreographic and teaching practice is a commitment to fostering connection and building community. Her work is driven by the belief that dance has the power to reveal the shared humanity that unites us all. Through constant experimentation and the expansion of conceptual, technical, and collaborative approaches, Rosario creates work that transcends traditional boundaries, crafting movement that is both artistically innovative and emotionally resonant.

​

Her repertoire spans a wide spectrum—from the deeply abstract to profoundly emotional—designed to challenge both dancers and audiences while inviting reflection and dialogue. Each piece serves as a mirror, refracting the human experience through the performers and allowing audiences to see themselves and each other more clearly. Rosario's ultimate aim is to use dance as a medium to bridge divides, foster understanding, and remind us that we are more alike than we are different.
