ABOUT FLATFOOT DANCE COMPANY
FLATFOOT prides itself on not only offering dance work that has won numerous awards, commissions and invitations from all over the world, but also on the vast amount of dance development and dance education work that they run in both rural and urban areas of KwaZulu-Natal. The initial impulse of creating FLATFOOT – the idea of growing dance and dancers – is something that the company still remains true to almost 30 years since its beginning.

WHAT WE DO
FLATFOOT DANCE COMPANY’s mission is to keep pushing the boundaries of space, place and belonging in its dance performance work that has seen the company winning awards and commissions across South Africa, and touring extensively on the African continent. FLATFOOT encourages both the growth of choreographers within the company, as well as committing to artistic collaborations and partnerships where possible.
