Welcome to BoSoma Dance Company

BoSoma Dance Company is a Boston based professional dance company that produces high energy, athletic and stimulating performances with its own signature of vibrant, vital movement. The company was founded in 2003 by Co-Artistic Directors Irada Djelassi and Katherine Hooper.  The company produces annual fall and spring season performances and performs regularly at other venues throughout Greater Boston and New England.

For [BoSoma's] premier performance of VELOCITY in the fall of 2003, the Boston Globe reported, "The weekend debut...provided an excellent showcase...for the choreography of its artistic directors, Katherine Hooper and Irada Djelassi."

Through creative and artistically innovative movements, BoSoma’s mission is to enrich the cultural life of communities. The company is committed to developing exciting, physical and aesthetic contemporary dance. Audiences can experience dance through major performances, educational workshops and community outreach programs.   In the summer of 2007, BoSoma was proud to announce a partnership with the Jackson Mann Community Center in Allston, MA and brought the art of dance to more that 100 inner city youths. This partnership was made possible by Mayor Menino and a Boston R.O.C.K.S grant.  

This program is supported in part by a grant from the Boston Cultural Council, a local agency which is funded by the Massachusetts Cultural Council, administrated by the Mayor's office of Arts, Tourism, and Special Events.

BoSoma is a registered non-profit 501(c)3 organization
