Houston based Soul Street Dance is one of the most dynamic premier street dance companies in existence. Their technical and artistic skills, stage presence and wit allow them to push the performance envelope to an amazing standard of excellence.
Although they are called a “Dance Company”, their talents far outstrip any one category.
In addition to dance, Soul Street performers are actors, athletes, (with uncanny strength), and lately, songwriters and musicians.
FEATURED PERFORMANCES
Soul Street’s high standard and attention to detail coupled with impeccable business practices earned them the honor of representing The United States of abroad under the auspices of the Arts Envoys touring program from the State Department’s Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs. They have recently completed two tours of the European Eastern Bloc, sharing the joy of dance through workshops and performances with young aspiring dancers from the former Soviet Union countries. They are currently in preparation to represent the U.S. further in an upcoming tour of Haiti.
In all travels they garner goodwill for our country and Houston, Texas by modeling sober, responsible behavior along with open hearts and minds and clean fun that allow them to seamlessly share experience with all cultures.
Soul Street has the amazing ability to totally engage audiences of all ages.
A huge repertoire and outstanding flexibility have earned them the title, “Rock Stars of the Educational Theatre World” and they’re working hard to expand these accolades worldwide!
From educational shows, workshops, full-fledged evening performances or any combination of the aforementioned, Soul Street will leave you speaking of nothing else for days!
Soul Street’s consistent excellence in dance and attention to subject matter has made them one of the top educational outreach groups in this country.

“Soul Street Dance wowed audiences with mind boggling fast changing footsteps, front and back somersaults, cart wheels either one-armed or completely in the air, outrageous figures.”
The Siegen Daily – Germany
“Soul Street was INCREDIBLE! I have rarely seen our student audience so “buzzy” with excitement throughout an entire performance. The students were exposed to young, cool men who displayed what can be accomplished with a lot of hard work and positive application of creative expression.”
