  • Like to Dance? Join Alima

    Alima International Dance Association is a non-competitive dance group at the University of Connecticut. Our goal is to teach our members and the surrounding UConn community about cultural differences through the art of dance and music. Our dances tell stories of people from all around the world. We also showcase hip-hop, lyrical and modern routines choreographed by our dancers.  Alima celebrates diversity and and welcomes dancers of all abilities and backgrounds. "Alima" is a word of Arabic origin that means "those who are skilled at music and dance". The colors of Alima are red and black to represent strength and power. 

    This Spring 2021 Semester, Alima will be held virtually via WebEx. We are so excited to welcome new members and continue our passion for dance. Come join us at the Involvement Fair! Our first practice will be on Friday, February 5. Save the date!
