Kenda Newbury's  AZDance Group

About AZDance  
AZDance in PerformanceABOUT
AZDance Group was formed by Kenda Newbury after moving back to Phoenix from Boston in 2003. Kenda wanted to give dance professionals more performing options in the valley and introduce audiences a different dance option.

Ms. Newbury uses many dancers from within Arizona as well as from New York, Boston, Myrtle Beach, Las Vegas, Baton Rouge and Rhode Island. 

AZDance has performed nationally including New York City, Michigan, Connecticut and California and throughout Arizona. 

AZDance Group is a non-profit 501c(3) organization.

AZDance has five Educational Outreach Programs.

AZDance Group is available for regional and national tours, master classes, choreography and collaborative projects.

AZDance Group strives to unleash the artistic potential of every member within the company.


AZDances Run For Life

Fundraising and generous contributions from citizens, businesses, and citygrants, are instrumental in allowing AZDance Group to continue to create and produce productions. 

The company is hoping to find a "home" building so that they can conduct rehearsals, master classes, regular company classes for all programs and open up their doors to other organizational needs which promote and produce high-quality art.  

AZDance Group is always looking for new volunteers, new audience members, supporters and sponsors and new Movement E-Motion participants.
