Photos from RIMDC recital - Stories in a dancer's soul

“Dance is the hidden language of the soul”
― Martha Graham

The Ada Icon enjoyed Rhythm in Motion Dance Centre recital over the weekend at Ada High School. It was the culmination of six months of hard word by the performers.

This year’s theme was “Stories in a Dancer’s Soul.”  We saw lots of young talent and students expressing themselves through all kinds of motion. We’d like to share some of what we watched with Icon viewers.

Here’s a series of photos of the recital by Icon photographer Bailey Bowers.
