In His Image Company
In His Image Company is a Christian dance company based in Tallahassee Florida. The goal of this company is for dancers to cultivate a deeper Christian dance community, grow in dance technique, and build repertoire (Classical, Contemporary, and Worship). Members will learn how to perform for God’s glory and serve those around them. The impact we wish to leave on the community is to provide a clear presentation of the gospel as well as show Christ's love through the way our students dance and how they serve. Within our dancers we want to instill a drive to pour back into younger dancers and the Tallahassee community.

The Faun’s Lullaby has been a delightful portion of this ballet to focus on the last few months. In the scene in Tumnus’ cave in The Lion The Witch and The WardrobeLewis crafted deep emotions, and a powerful image of repentance, confession, and forgiveness with very few words. Tumnus’ motive (heard most clearly as he lulls Lucy to sleep) captures a nobility, mystery and sadness that Tumnus especially bears. He is a noble soul, prone to gaiety, but entrapped by fear. He is called to courage by Lucy’s tenderness and goodness to him. His decision to reject the witch’s devices challenges us to walk with boldness and faith, even when the immediate result seems uncertain.
