Our Impact

BE Dance Studios is a 501 (c) 3 nonprofit organization, founded in 2009 by Perpetua Phillips, community builder, producer, teacher, dancer and choreographer.

The vision of BE Dance Studios was to foster inclusivity and diversity within the professional dance world by providing exposure and quality dance education to communities of color.

Over the years, BE Dance Studios’ mission has evolved to using dance as the vehicle by which individuals discover, acknowledge and accept themselves and others. In support of its mission, BE Dance Studios has hosted programs such as the Brown Ballerina Empowerment Summit, held community access performances of The Nutcracker: Swingin’ & All Jazzed Up, provided scholarships for graduating High School Seniors, hosted service events in partnership with Feeding America and the Salvation Army, as well as been a safe space for students, families and partners to engage and connect.

Today, BE Dance Studios continues to facilitate outstanding dance education and performance programs and events, allowing students and audiences to experience the wander of learning, growing, creating, connecting and collaboration.

Exercises at the barre prepare for more complicated rhythms and combinations in the center.
