Based out of Orlando, FL Nao Dance Collective has been featured on the Orlando Home and Leisure Magazine, local and national television and has performed all over the United States. Nao Dance Collective made its debut performance in 2008 with an improvisational production of “Alice Takes Wonderland”.

Nao Dance Collective, pronounced "now" came from the word Tao which is "the way of life". Ancient Chinese considered Tao as the highest, omnipresent order of universe. A life following Tao implies a life with the highest fulfillment.
Nao Dance Collective company members are bold, intuitive, risk-takers with a strong base of technical training.

Nao Dance Collective is committed to exploring honest situations and experiences through structured improvisational dance and delivering it to all audience members.

Nao Dance Collective believes that we can inspire a life change among our audience members that can lead to new and better ways of perceiving daily life.

On stage, Nao Dance Collective explores the subtle, intense, pivotal and vulnerable moments of the "now"
Nao Dance Collective is founded on:
Making your movement believable by answering the "why" questions
Allowing yourself to be vulnerable, receptive and open in your dancing
Not allowing yourself to dance from the ego
When you dance only from your ego or your conscious mind you are just skimming the surface. Develop your voice and imagine what is really possible when you dance from your authentic person. ~Linda Eve Elchak
Nao Dance Collective is not interested in programming individuals, we support letting every dancer have their own voice and allow them to develop themselves through self-discovery.
Our Mission:
To explore honest perspectives in the human condition through movement that inspires, enlightens, and entertains
