Organization Description: 

Elements Contemporary Ballet is the first and only contemporary ballet company based in Chicago. Combining the beauty of classical technique with contemporary style and verve, ECB advances and explores ballet through the marriage of innovative concepts and classical art. Founded in 2005 by Artistic Director Mike Gosney, the company trains and develops its work using the four elements; fire, earth, air, and water; to each represent a major facet of dance; expression, physicality, focus, and freedom. Elements now produces annual concerts in downtown Chicago, performs in local showcases and dance festivals, presents free lecture demonstrations to the public, and provides community outreach through Chicago's Urbans Gateways program.
