How Kinetic Revelation came to be...
Kimberly
Bronson, is the founder and artistic director of Kinetic
Revelation. She
taught in a secular studio
for several years just out of high school, but the cry of her heart was
to train students and choreograph
dances for eternal
impact and God's glory. In 1987, Kimberly opened Praise
In Motion Christian Academy
of Dance, the first
Christian based studio in the Fort Wayne area. After 13
successful years, Praise
In Motion was closed
to allow Kimberly to devote more time to her family. The Lord
opened doors for her to continue
to teach dance in the years
that followed, and then He placed a call on her life to once again
open a studio.
Kinetic
Revelation originally opened in the summer of 2007 on the south side of
Fort Wayne, featuring
teachnique-based training focusing on proper alignment. That
alignment is expressed in the body and in
the whole person being
aligned under the blood of Jesus. After a year long hiatus in
2009-2010, during which Kimberly
taught at another studio,
Kinetic Revelation is on the move again!
The
name Kinetic Revelation came as a result of much prayer and
research to seek out what the Lord
wanted this work to be
called. Kinetic is defined as "producing motion"
and revelation is
defined as "sudden inspiration or
understanding." Our goal is to be a moving revelation of the
Lord's
heart as revealed in
Scripture! There is a renewed calling on this ministry
to explore God's heart for His
Church in our dances and
concerts, and to make dance part of a lifestyle of communication and
worship with our Creator King.
We are an Academy of Dance
because we employ a graded curriculum in which students are
regularly evaluated. Each
student is ensured
placement at an appropriate level in which they
will excell and be challenged.
At Kinetic
Revelation, our desire is to pursue excellence for His glory in technique, and
at the same time help those we work with and minister to go deeper in the
Lord. We would love to
have you join us on this
journey!
The
photo that you see above was taken by Kimberly Bronson from the top of
the John Hancock Building
in Chicago in July of
2006, at a very pivotal crossroads in her life. In the photo, the
cathedral is being revealed
from beneath moving
clouds. This seems to be a fitting illustration for Kinetic
Revelation. |

"With Abandon" -
Kinetic Revelation's
dance company. | |
With Abandon's name is taken
from 2
Samuel 6:13 "David...danced with great abandon before God." (The
Message)
With Abandon is
a Christ-centered company of dancers who seek
to use their technique,
gifts and abilities in dance as worship and a way to express the heart
of God to His people.
There are
openings for both male and female
intermediate to advanced
dancers with previous technique-based experience who are interested in
using their talent and gifts
in dance for the Lord. Our company is geared toward teens and adults, but no
one with adequate experience will be turned away from auditioning.
2011-2012 Season Auditions will be held on Thursday, October 6 at 7:30
p.m. at our 10006 Auburn Park Drive facility.
Prospective company members
should come prepared with the following:
1. Grande allegro
(leap) combination which must include, but
is not necessarily limited
to: tour jete', grande jete', cabriolle, sissone
2. Turn combination, which must include, but is not necessarily
limited to: chaine',
pique', soutenu, and pirouette (jazz or ballet) - double
turns are an asset, but not required.
3. At least one dance reference and one personal reference, including a pastor or
Christian ministry leader
reference.
4. The ability to express how
your faith impacts your daily life and dance,
and why you want to be
part of With Abandon.
If you are interested in auditioning for With Abandon, feel free
to e-mail us in advance of the audition and we will send you the application.
This will give you adequate time to answer the questions on the application, and
alleviate rushing to fill it out on audition day.
Rehearsals times for the coming season are yet to be determined,
but will most likely be on Thursday evenings. You must be able to
attend rehearsals on a regular basis in order to be cast in the company.
There
will be a small rehearsal fee charged to each company
member to cover costs.
