Biographical / Historical
Judy Bejarano was born and raised in Colorado, and earned dance degrees from UNC and CU Boulder. In 1995 she created Impact Dance Company in Ft. Collins which combines original text and multimedia with dance to create evening length dance theatre performances and workshops that speak to issues in our everyday lives. Judy is committed to redefining how the company interacts with the audience so they have performed in unexpected places like store fronts, warehouses, and a gracious old turn of the century home as well as in traditional theaters. Every Voice Matters is the outreach program offered by the company which is performed at regional conferences. Judy is on the faculty at CSU, teaches regular community dance classes in Ft. Collins, and teaches in the summer program at UNC. Her work has been shown throughout Colorado and in Wyoming, Texas, New York, and Alaska.
