CHECKMATE Trainor Dance
New York City, NY / USA

Project

• Trainor Dance, a NYC based dance company known for visually compelling, physically exciting, thought provoking dance performances, required a marley dance floor with the right combination of quality, feel and grip to be danced upon safely if cut into roughly 1.6 x 1.6 m (5 x 5 ft) squares while being easily moveable by the dancers in the piece.

• Gerriets manufactured and precisely cut 18 1.6 x 1.6 m (5 x 5 ft) of Black/White VARIO CLASSIC reversible floor for Trainor Dance’s performance of “Checkmate”.

•  In “Checkmate”, dancers moved the squares to create different shapes and patterns on the floor during the dance piece.
