CLYMOVE Dance
Founded in New York City, CLYMOVE Dance is a women-led modern and contemporary dance company committed to bold physicality, emotional intelligence, and collaborative innovation. Under the artistic direction of choreographer and Licensed Mental Health Counselor Clymene Aldinger, CLYMOVE bridges high-caliber technique with deeply human storytelling, creating work that is both viscerally athletic and psychologically resonant.
Rooted in Aldinger’s background as both a performer and clinician, the company’s creative process is informed by somatic research, polyvagal theory, and a commitment to collective empowerment. CLYMOVE’s repertory explores themes of resilience, identity, sisterhood, and transformation—crafting performances that move fluidly between intimacy and spectacle. The company has developed a distinct aesthetic language: grounded yet expansive, cinematic yet raw, balancing virtuosic movement with theatrical nuance.
CLYMOVE has presented seasons in New York City and toured nationally, earning recognition for its dynamic collaborations with celebrated artists across disciplines, including composers, DJs, and dancers from major institutions. The company is known for producing world premieres alongside audience-favorite repertory works, cultivating performances that are as technically rigorous as they are emotionally accessible.
Beyond the stage, CLYMOVE is dedicated to mentorship, fair pay for artists, and building sustainable pathways for dance professionals. Through residencies, community engagement, and educational initiatives, the organization fosters environments where artists can thrive creatively and economically.
As it continues to expand its reach, CLYMOVE Dance stands at the intersection of artistry and advocacy—championing movement as both performance and powerful social dialogue.
