Atlas Dance Collective is a project-based dance company geared towards providing professional performance and choreographic opportunities for emerging dancers and choreographers.  Atlas is currently directed by Whitney Collins.

Whitney Collins earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree in Modern Dance along with a Minor in Earth Science from Utah Valley University.  With over 18 years of dance experience, she has been developing a stunning resume encompassing her skills in performance, choreography/freelance, teaching/leadership, as well as dance for film and more.  Whitney has performed professionally for both The Penguin Lady Dance Collective and for BRINE’s show, Disembodied WE.  During the summers of 2016 and 2017, Whitney had the privilege of attending the American Dance Festival’s 6-week summer intensive (ADF 6WS 2016 & 2017) in Durham, North Carolina, where she took opportunities to perform, network, attend professional dance concerts, collaborate, and continue her dance training.

Most recently, Whitney has become the director of Atlas Dance Collective –the newest dance collective located in Lehi, Utah.  She has also been attending dance company auditions and intensives/workshops throughout the United States in order to continue pursuing her dreams of performing professionally.  On top of directing Atlas Dance Collective, Whitney teaches dance to the youth at Velocity Dance Academy and is also a Board Member for Aspire Performance Academy of the Arts in Brigham City, Utah.  Whitney always does her best to stay active and current in the arts communities, and is always looking for ways to share her passion for dance with the world.  “I absolutely love what I do; everything from directing, choreographing, performing and teaching, to volunteering my time as a Board Member for Aspire.  I am not going to let anything get in the way of my dreams, passions, and goals. Always follow your biggest dream, believe in it, and aspire to it!”
