MANX, short for Movement Arts Nature Exchange, is a dance/opera fusion company integrating opera and dance through embodied research, healthy technique, and artist-centered processes. Led by Artistic Director Melanie Holm, MANX produces and collaborates on dance/opera fusion performances and leads Movement/Singing workshops and residencies.

At its core, MANX is about embodied experimentation, and creating humane spaces where opera and dance are integrated through curiosity, sustainable technique, and fearless exploration. Through interdisciplinary performances and educational outreach, MANX challenges stereotypes about what it means to be a dancer or opera singer, and helps artists cultivate and develop greater confidence in their bodies and voices.
