American Spirit Dance Co.
 

Touring is a special opportunity available to dance and arts management students at Oklahoma City University. Expenses for transportation, hotels, and meals are provided at no cost to the students on tour.

Overseas tours have taken the company to Taiwan for performances at the National Academy of Arts, the University of Chinese Culture, the National Police Academy, and performances at the Central Newspaper agency in the heart of Taipei. The American Spirit Dancers have also traveled to Southeast Asia for performances in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, as well as Singapore.



Within the United States, the American Spirit Dance Company has performed in many Oklahoma communities; for the USO in Pensacola, Florida; and in Los Alamos, New Mexico; Peoria, Illinois; and Woodbury, Tennessee. An account of the 1999 Asian Tour to Malaysia and Singapore was published in the April 2001 Dance Spirit magazine.
