Tara McCrystal, Artistic Director

Tara is interested in improvisation and contact improvisation for performance, channeling energy into movement and connecting with our hearts & each other. For her, dance improvisation is a channel for the soul to speak. 

Tara co-directed SPUNKandCOmpany Contemporary Dance in Boston, MA. The collaborative company created original works that often magnified social issues & human relationships. Tara led the Modern Dance training for the pre-professional ballet program at Integrarte in Boston, MA with Erica Cornejo & Carlos Molina, and she currently teaches at Lee Lund Studio of Dance in Milford, CT.

Tara has danced for BoSoma Dance Company, Contrapose Dance Company, LCTC-Lorraine Chapman the Company, and with Collage Dance Ensemble. She has studied with Marcus Schulkind, Olivier Besson, Tommy Nebblet, Yasuko Tokunaga, Emiko Tokunaga, Jennifer Scanlon, Leslie Woodies, and Donna Silva. She has performed works by David Parker, Gianni Di Marco, Adrienne Hawkins, Heidi Rood, Jennifer Hardy, Martha Graham, Jose Limon, and many other wonderful choreographers throughout her performance career. 

Tara believes in collaborative arts processes to expand our consciousness with the unlimited capacity to build community, heal humanity and transform our souls. She connects with the freedom that lies inside us all, as well as the curiosity that keeps us questioning infinite choice to evolve & together create lives that we love.
