DDF Alum Atticus Dobbie Joins the Professional World of Dance
Sending a huge congratulations to DDF Alumnus Atticus Dobbie who has just joined the Gauthier Dance Company in Stuttgart Germany! Atticus started at DDF when we did – back in 2009 in the little gym on Chambers Street. Who knew then that Atticus would be going off to perform internationally for a professional dance company! We are incredibly proud of Atticus for all his accomplishments and can’t wait to see him shine!

Wrapping Up Another Successful DDF Summer!
Who had an awesome summer dancing at DDF? These dancers did! What better way to spend the summer than dancing, forming lasting friendships and having an all out blast! Thanks so much to all our summer dancers – those that came for a week and those that came for all 8 weeks (and everyone in between too).
We had so much fun dancing with you!

Downtown Dance Factory Hits Reverb!
It was our first time attending the Reverb Competition, and what a success it was! Downtown Dance Factory took home so many awards, including the “Best Technique” Studio Award and the “Reverb Award” for the Top Scoring Studio in all the age divisions we entered! Our soloists also won 1st place in those same age divisions (congratulations Willow, Willa & Charlie) and finally, the only 7 “Smash Hit” Awards that were presented all weekend went to DDF! Congratulations to our amazing dancers!

DDF Dancers Join Kids Breaking League at NYC PAC!
This past weekend, our DDF breaking program partnered with the Kids Breaking League, a program run by DDF Breaking teacher Kid Glyde. They performed at the beautiful brand new Perelman Performing Arts Center just blocks from DDF. What a great way to help celebrate 50 years of Hip Hop! Thanks to all the DDF families who came out to watch and support, and even battle!
