AscenDance Project presents: Dancers for Higher

With the production of dance-climb fusion shows, AscenDance Project aspires to gather climbers, dancers of different backgrounds, artists, musicians, and an audience that can appreciate a fusion of these elements. Ultimately, Isabel von Rittberg is striving to produce a show that will unite performers from entirely different backgrounds (Salsa, Hip Hop, Break Dance, Modern, Ballet and Dance-Climb Fusion). In the end, music and dance is about what unites us, not about what separates us.

This is the most beautiful performance I have ever witnessed! Please pursue your dream; I for one plan on supporting you. You could do theme's (Beatles, Classical, 80's, etc) Image what it would look like with a network of people in a big production!! Please also keep in mind that you could do something kid oriented. Our litle ones would love it! I see a dark stage and you all lighted up with some type of body lights over your limbs and head. How cool would that be??!! You have my vote!

Thanks so much for your kind email. You have very great ideas... some of which we have had... but the budget has always been fairly tight...... Thanks for the support and let's see where this will take us!

Best,

Isabel

Hi there, a Berkeley girl here who saw your performance on AGT and had to look you up. That performance was one of the most romantic, moving things I've ever seen. I think this art form may be a hard sell to the public, but I for one would absolutely love to see you in person, particularly in a show with different styles and dancers incorporated. Whatever happens, please don't give that dream up. You're inspiring. Thank you.

thank you, i really appreciate your encouragement!

we will keep doing what we're doing... no matter what.

best,

i

You two are beautiful. You have an expressive art form that is gorgeous and has a lot of potential for yourselves as artists and for your audiences, too. I wish you only the very best: continued love, joy in your love and your art, health and safety, and opportunities to explore and expand your horizons. I wonder if you would like to contact Trey McIntyre in Boise. His company is also very interesting and creative. Perhaps trying something together would open doors. Best wishes to you.

I wouldn't be surprised to see something like this as part of a Cirque Du Soleil show someday. It seems on a par as far as athleticism and creativity go, and it can be quite mesmerizing, especially with larger groups. I'm skeptical about its ability to be a headliner in a place like Vegas, but I'd pay to go see it in Seattle or the suburbs. =) Thanks for sharing your brilliance!

This is absolutely beautiful, what more can I say? I love you guys!

[surfer744]

I hope your are going to do something like this for the semi finale in AGT

I really love watching the grace and flow their bodies have as they climb and dance. It is so beautiful!

Thank you,

Sandra

@markbswan Or join Cirque de Soleil... I'm cheering for them, but even if they don't win they can use this exposure to further their performing career in a variety of ways.

AscenDance was my favorite AGT performance. There are tons of singers, dance groups, magicians, musicians. How many people can do this? And do it at this level. The control, strength, beauty, and unity of this makes it amazing to watch. If i was in Vegas and was going to spend big money on a live performance, honestly it would be to see something like this. I can imagine a really awesome production revolving around this.
