About BodyVox

Based in Portland, Oregon, BodyVox’s movement surges from a fascination with the endless possibilities of the human body in motion, informed by years of cross training and layers of experience.

Hampton and Roland are distinguished artists on the world stage, formed by their years working as creators and performers with innovative dance companies Momix, ISO Dance, and Pilobolus. Throughout four decades of collaboration, Hampton and Roland have performed in major cities worldwide, have choreographed fashion shows, arena rock shows, videos, operas and ballets. 

BodyVox builds upon this tradition of excellence with a unique voice that is equally influenced by its Northwest roots and world view. The New York Times says "BodyVox dances with a breezy freshness all its own."

Now in its 27th year, BodyVox is a vital member of the Portland arts community. The BodyVox Dance Center has become a nexus for creativity and inspiration, serving multiple disciplines seven days a week with four studios and a 180-seat theater. Through ongoing collaborations with every major arts organization in town, 70 classes a week serving 600 students of all ages and abilities, as well as performances and residencies year-round, BodyVox is a model of how the arts create community through rigor and joy.
