fEMBODY SHOWCASE

The fEMBODY Showcase is a platform for rising dancers to express, explore, and get paid for their power. 

This is a celebration and a space designed to elevate emerging and amateur performers — especially those from marginalized communities — who are ready to be seen, heard, and hyped.

Expect captivating energy, fierce heels, bold expression, and a room full of individuals cheering for every glide, every story, and every body in motion.

Why this showcase is one-of-a-kind:

✨ Paid performances — because all art deserves compensation
✨ Mentorship — monthly virtual feedback from industry mentors for our emerging line-up and a kick off “Performance Prep & Presence” session
✨ Post-show workshops — open to performers + public
✨ No themes, no limits — show us YOU and how you embody your femininity on stage
