BIOGRAPHY
Steve Love's New York Express Roller Dance Company was founded in
1985 as a natural outgrowth of the contemporary dance and roller
skating explosion. Since its inception, Mr. Love has led three
generations of companies and hundreds of skaters to theatres and
arenas throughout the world. His work demonstrates a new approach to
modern classical movement with an extraordinarily unique
medium…...Wheels !
Within this distinctly American art form, the company combines the
athleticism of precision dance and acrobatics with mime and theatre.
Their personal choreographic style incorporates both the rigor and
discipline of traditional training and the exuberance and edge of
street style jazz.
Steve Love's New York Express Roller Dance Company has been featured
on the Today Show and MTV, as well as on television in Japan, Taiwan,
Hong Kong, Thailand, Italy and the UK. International tours include the
Migros "Steps Dance Festival in Switzerland, the "Aruba International
