May Day! May Day!
Pulse has hit the ground running this season and May is no exception.
To recap, April was jam-packed with performance goodness. From the premiere of PULSE’s newest work at Out North's Pride Prom to performance art in full body paint for Halo Salon’s “Hair2O” event, the company’s been keeping busy and loving it. We also had the pleasure of dancing alongside Thodos Dance Chicago while hosting a workshop open to the community. Experiencing Thodos in Alaska was truly awe-inspiring.

This Wednesday, May 2 marks the end of our month-long series
of FREE dance classes for kids ages 9-15 at the Fairview Recreation Center with Associate Artistic Director Walter Barillas. Touching
the lives of children through movement (and in ways they had never before been exposed to) has been
rewarding in a multitude of ways. Who knew nine-year-olds would use words like “inspired”
to describe their experience?!
