Poetry in Motion

Barb and Katie dance to "Backyard Birds and a Bard."
Word Dances: Poetry in Motion is an inspirational and introspective fusion of poetry narration with music and interpretive dance, based on the Time to Soar book. Our performance provides meaningful and thought-provoking messages of healing and peace suitable for any gathering. We perform for various lengths of time, from 10 to 90 minutes.
The performance is an excellent alternative to a traditional speaker for many types of events, such as conferences, retreats, banquets, senior living centers, library story times, churches, school presentations, Christmas parties, art galleries, and many more. Our audiences are inspired and moved. Read the Reviews!
The dances were choreographed and are performed by Katie Bruckbauer, author of Time to Soar, and Barb Wieland. Katie and Barb were performing dancers and instructors for almost 30 years at two former Fargo, ND dance studios, Mahkahta Dance Theater and 8th Street Studio of Dance, of which they were part owners.
