MYO is an eclectic company rooted in contemporary ballet with strong modern influences, martial arts, and a touch of hip-hop. MYO dancers go from bare feet to pointe to high flying aerial stunts in the rafters.
Ingrid Hoffman collaborates with Myo Productions as a performer and Aerial Choreographer. Her unique aerial dance combines acrobatics, circus arts, and martial arts in a variety of choreographic styles to "expand the dimensions of dance performance". Her work incorporates trapeze, hoop, and aerial silk, as well as original custom rigging.
Adding to their unconventionality, MYO performs to original LIVE music by the industrial rock band KYO (formerly SURVE). Front man Paul Rivera so happens to sing and play guitar on stilts, rocking the house down at 9'-4".
MYO is dedicated to redefining Theatre experience by fusing a multitude of art forms and hopefully breaking a few rules along the way.
