Who is INNERGY

We are a 501(c)3 Nonprofit professional dance company founded by Tyra J. Ike Asogwa in 2009. After her first experience with the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theatre, Tyra knew she needed to bring high quality dance training and exposure to marginalized communities. It was from her experience with the legendary Hope Boykin that sparked the drive in her to spearhead INNERGY. Providing opportunities for Black women choreographers, minority dance artists and individuals with the desire to dance and be well.

Objective

The objective of our non-profit 501(c)3 organization is to provide consistent, equitable access and exposure to the arts. We provide a platform for artists to develop and master their craft through our professional dance company, educate audiences of the rich diverse dance forms of the African Diaspora and strengthen our communities through dance and wellness classes.

Impact

Although based in Alabama, our reach is broad. Our communities impacted include Mobile County Public Schools, Huntsville City Schools, University of Alabama, The Mobile Museum of Art, Dance Theatre of Huntsville, the Kennedy Center as well as Europe, Canada and all over the Southeastern United States.

Overall, we seek to:

Diversify dance techniques and provide equitable access to the arts by honoring our mission to give the gift of dance and wellness to the world.

Guide Alabamians to broaden our exposure in celebrating the culturally diverse art forms of the African Diaspora.

Provide paid platforms for artists to continue work and impact the community. Our performance and master class series will provide the community and artists opportunities to forge new relationships and growth in diverse regions they might not have the opportunity to reach on their own.
