There&#8217;s no doubt about it &#8211; 2012 has been a busy year for EPIK Dance Company!  They have performed at several events throughout the valley, hosted master classes with some of the industry&#8217;s best, and been blessed with the opportunity to work with some phenomenal community organizations like Free Arts of Arizona and The Be Kind People Project!<br />
<br />
And with all of that excitement, it&#8217;s just the beginning.<br />
<br />
EPIK Dance Company is currently working on a number of performance and education initiatives.  The date has been set for their 2013 stage performance (hint: it will be the perfect idea Valentine&#8217;s Day weekend), they are further developing the EPIK Movement (Empowering Passion In Kids) and other supporting education programs.  But don&#8217;t you worry &#8211; EPIK Open Company Classes are still in effect, and will be all summer long.<br />
