Vania Bynum
DWC Ambassador
Vania C. Bynum is a dancer, teacher, and choreographer whose calling is to enhance the life of others through her artistic gifts. She is the founder of Bynum Arts and Education movement, with a mission to empower communities through dance and other art forms. Her work is described as commanding, emotionally evocative, and a lovely balance of power and grace.
Initially, I was motivated by Robbi Moore, an amazing dancer and previous Dancewear Ambassador, who encouraged me to look into the Ambassador position. After researching the Dancewear Center, I was personally inspired by their belief that “Every body is a Dancing body” and the commitment they had to bring forth dancers from diverse backgrounds and experiences to share their artistic journey and platform. I also wanted to take an opportunity for personal growth as I step out of my comfort zone into social media to promote the Dancewear center as well as what I am doing in the dance community and my experiences as a Dancing MOM. And last but not least, it is always great to meet new artists, form friendships, and collaborate on new projects. I am very excited to share my story, my passion for dance, and my desire to expand the face of the arts by providing opportunities for artists of color. I look forward to my time as a 2023 Dancewear Center Ambassador.
