Piel Morena Contemporary Dance (PMCD) was founded on July 2009 in Chicago IL by Artistic Director Alejandra González and Executive Director Laura Tomlinson. PMCD is a company of four empowering women that move to their own voice and rhythm, creating their own style in concert dance. With all Latino inspired works, PMCD creates a true cultural exchange between worlds. Their beautiful, talented and passionate dancers blend everything together to bring to life this fresh sense of unity and diversity to their audience.Tumblr (3.0; @pmcd)http://pmcd.tumblr.com/<iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/35069818" width="400" height="225" frameborder="0"></iframe><br/><br/><p>Enjoy ¡Se Feliz!</p>http://pmcd.tumblr.com/post/19522216741http://pmcd.tumblr.com/post/19522216741Sun, 18 Mar 2012 12:55:21 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lnm8v7SHbC1qa68k3o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>International Contemporary Dance Intensive is under way!
