   Who are we?
   The Subjective Dance Company, also known as, the Subjective Dance Club is a club for
   individual dancers, as well as, other dance teams, dance crews, and dance companies.
   We’re building a network to provide more opportunities and training to dancers.
   We aim to bridge the gap between street and theater dance.
   Our first and currently only active branch, Subjective Dance Club Virginia (SDCVA), focuses on
   uniting and raising awareness of the dance community of the Greater Richmond Region of
   Virginia and the surrounding areas. We launched on February 25, 2016 and continue to
   successfully create life altering experiences and opportunities for dancers of various ages
   through events, training, traveling, and bookings. Now approaching year 4, we have
   successfully launched multiple reoccurring local events, as well as given dancers
   opportunities to be featured in music videos, participate in live festival performances, be
   featured on live television, compete and win in competitions, dance in some of the most
   established dance studios of the Greater Richmond Region, dance in nationally recognized
   arenas, meet international celebrities, train with industry level choreographers, train for
   shows like America’s Got Talent and Kid’s Got Talent, and more. Our efforts have led to
   members being booked for contracts servicing GEICO, Richmond Parks and Recreation,
   multiple dance studios, Richmond Public Library, ESPN, VSU, VCU, and more. Ultimately,
   we’ve developed the ability to provide opportunities for street dancers and/or dancers who
   are self-trained to get paid for doing what they love and/or experience adventures they
   normally wouldn’t receive in Richmond, Virginia. With this ability, we give hope, inspiration,
   and valuable life lessons to men and women of various ages.
   We are different from the average dance company because SDCVA does not only draw
   attention to events, classes, and shows of our own. We also direct traffic and focus to other
   organizations, teams, individuals, and companies willing to network and currently teaching
   or providing platforms to the next generation of dancers. Community outreach is our priority
   and we are currently working on receiving 501(c)(3) non-profit status for SDCVA.

   @SubjectiveDance Battlegrounds (SDBG) is a multi-part dance
   competition series set to shine light on the street dancers and battle dancers
   of the local community. Introduced in July of 2016, each event is different in
   layout and hopes to bring the surrounding dance community together for a
   fun and exciting dance event, as well as, serve as a fundraising opportunity
   for all parties involved.
   What is SDBG?
   SDBG is an acronym for
   @SubjectiveDance BattleGrounds

3. Community Effects
   The return of @SubjectiveDance BattleGrounds to the Commonwealth of Virginia
   is needed and will serve as on-going inspiration for dance enthusiasts of the local
   community for years to come. We recognize that the talent performers possess in
   Virginia needs to be seen, embraced, and celebrated here at home before the rest
   of the world accepts it..
   Dancers from Virginia regularly spend a countless amount of time, energy, and
   money traveling to other states to compete and win dance competitions. Our goal
   is to give these same dancers a platform in Richmond, Virginia that assists them
   in becoming local celebrities and/or role models and puts money in their pockets.
   The youth in the Greater Richmond Region of Virginia need positive and exciting
   activities in their neighborhoods, local peers they can look up to, and inspiring
   things to look forward to, especially during these times of quarantining and
   racial/political tensions. SDBG provides all of these things. Serious participants
   spend time training, practicing, and even meditating instead of being in the
   streets, getting into or causing trouble. Less serious participants learn life
   changing lessons with preparation and time management, and are placed in
   networking situations that spark positive outcomes for the community. Spectators
   get inspired to find their own talents or purpose, perfect it, and then present it to
   the world. Spectators also physically have 0% chance of causing or getting into
   trouble in the streets when they are busy enjoying themselves at the next
   @SubjectiveDance BattleGround event. Previous SDBG events have seen
   participants ages 14 thru 40 and draws spectators from toddlers to grandparents.
   BY SPONSORING, YOU BECOME A KEY REASON WHY ALL OF THIS IS POSSIBLE!

   Next SDBG
   SubjectiveDance BattleGrounds for April 11th and June 20th
   have been postponed due to COVID-19 safety precautions
   but we maintained our September 19th event date, as it
   was National Dance Day in the USA.
   Next up is SDBG Halloween on Saturdary, October 31,
   2020. If weather permits, ideal settings are 17th Street
   Market, Dogwood Dell Amphitheater, Marcus David Peters
   Circle, or another Richmond based outdoor area that
   allows social distancing, fresh air, and a family friendly
   vibe. All booking reservations of dancers, judges, DJ, Host,
   etc. are on hold until an official venue is approved.

   October 31, 2020 is expected to have a high of 48 degrees and
   possibly be too cold for an outdoor dance event. If we move indoors
   and have a venue of limited space, we propose that we stream the
   entire event live online and sell $5 viewstub tickets.
   The final event format, set layout, and choice of supporting sponsors
   are TBD after approval of location.
   Online streaming is
   planned to be run
   through
