A Thought-Leader In Family & Children’s Dance Classes | Houston, TX
Frame Dance is a thought leader in dance education, inspiring the next generation of movers, makers, and world changers by offering dance classes for adults & children, multi-generational ensembles, professional performances, networking events, and film festivals. We are nestled between West U and the Museum District.
We believe in developing the whole dancer, teaching critical life skills such as creative thinking, leadership, collaboration, and resilience through our artful and playful dance curriculum at our studio and in partner schools.
Our adult modern dance classes are designed to offer you the joy and magic that’s possible when you create space in your life to move, to grow, and to share in the creative process with a like-hearted community.
For more than ten years, Frame Dance has brought radically inclusive and deeply personal contemporary dance to Houston. Led by Founder and Creative Director Lydia Hance, whom Dance Magazine calls “the city’s reigning guru of dance in public places,” the professional company is made up of six acclaimed co-creators committed to collaboration. Frame Dance has created over 50 unique site-specific performances and nine dances for the camera screened in festivals all over the United States and Europe. With an unrelenting drive to make dance in relationship to environment, Frame Dance has created dance works for and with METRO, Houston Museum of Natural Sciences, Houston Parks Board, Plant It Forward Farms, CORE Dance, Rice University, Houston Ballet, 14 Pews, Aurora Picture Show, and the Contemporary Arts Museum. Frame Dance’s productions were described by Arts + Culture Texas Editor-in-Chief Nancy Wozny as “some of the most compelling and entertaining work in Houston.” Creative Director Lydia Hance is a champion of living composers and is dedicated to work exclusively with new music.

A salute to the men and women who died during the attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7th 1941. 72 years ago. 2,386 Americans died and 1,139 were wounded. Eighteen ships were sunk or run aground, including five battleships. The attack lasted 90 minutes.
It’s a week before Thanksgiving! So Happy Early Thanksgiving everyone! Here are some fun videos to help you get through the long-awaited weekend. Enjoy!
Partitions divide countries, friendships find a way (Thankful for lasting friendships)
Thankful for laughter! Haha!
And since Thanksgiving is only a week away…I couldn’t resist showing a scene from A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving on how to prepare a Thanksgiving feast! If you haven’t seen it, you can watch the whole thing on YouTube! 🙂
4. Multi-task for muscle tone: Holding your stomach in while brushing your teeth, tightening your core through that red light. Surprising how many heel lift/crouch combos you can do while in the stand up tanning booth. Some are isometric, others active. You can be pretty creative, and while this won’t be a fitness routine, every bit helps! Just keep your balance, and your eyes on the road!
5. Putting dry tea bags or dryer sheets in smelly shoes or gym bags to absorb the unpleasant odor.
How to remove stems from strawberries (use a straw…get it?) ;P
