About BodyVox
Led by Emmy Award-winning choreographers Jamey Hampton and Ashley Roland, BodyVox is known for its visual virtuosity, distinctive wit and unique ability to combine dance, theater and film into breathtaking productions rich in imagery, athleticism and humor.
OPTIMISM IN MOTION.
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. BodyVox builds upon this tradition of excellence with a unique voice that is equally influenced by its Northwest roots and world view.
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 500 students of all ages and abilities, as well as performances and residencies year-round, BodyVox is a model of how arts can create community through rigor and joy.
