Eryc Taylor Dance (ETD) is a nonprofit, 501(c)(3) organization, dance company based in New York City. [1] The company was founded in 2006, [2] by Eryc Taylor. [3]

Prior to founding

Taylor had started the process to getting a master's degree in Fine Arts at New York University. [4] Instead of completing that, he started several "pickup companies" with choreographers he'd previously worked with. [5] (Pickup companies in dance are companies put together for temporary purposes or one performance only--somewhat like pickup games in sports. The concept also exists for musical groups.) He then started ETD. [6]
