WORD IN MOTION Dance Company’s core mission is to “present the gospel while developing a nation of dancers for Christ.” The heartbeat behind this mission is to win the lost and disciple the called by teaching dances how to use their gifts for ministry and live an uncompromising lifestyle.
THE COMPANY ministers every Sunday at their home church, The Underground (pastored by company directors, Tymme and Aury Reitz). They also participate in several conferences, workshops, and events throughout the year. Of all the events, Word In Motion is best known for their annual Urban Dance Festival which was created to train dancers and direct them towards the fulfillment of their call. This extraordinary Festival has also been used to unify Christian artists world-wide in
fellowship and faith.
PASTORS TYMME & AURY REITZ AND WORD IN MOTION dancers have been involved in dance ministry for over 9 years. Company members have worked with billboard artists such as Missy Elliot, Usher, Madonna, Janet Jackson, Will Smith, The Backstreet Boys, Black Eyed Peas, Ricky Martin, Christina Aguilera, Britney Spears and Destiny’s Child. Several faculty members have extensive credits in stage, film, television, commercial ads as well as televised award ceremonies ( including: The MTV Music Awards, The MTV Movie Awards, The Grammy Awards,The American Music Awards, The Billboard Music Awards, The Soul Train Awards, and The Latin Grammy Awards).
