Welcome to DanceChatt!
Here’s a place to enjoy reflective, long-form writing about dance in and around Chattanooga, Tennessee.
Why DanceChatt?
Chattanooga has a thriving dance community including professional companies, independent collectives, solo artists, and training companies. Whether you want to savor an avant-garde dance happening, appreciate an evening of classical ballet, or participate in a freestyle circle, Chattanooga has you covered.
We also have something rare in a market this size: DanceChatt, a publication about dance in Chattanooga. DanceChatt is a forum where people can reflect on dance they’ve seen, envisioned, or participated in. From dance theory to local dance history, dance grant-writing to the theology of dance, this is the place to find those deep conversations.
DanceChatt welcomes meditative essays, retrospectives, reviews, criticism, artist interviews, and even poems and short fiction about dance in Chattanooga.
