WHO WE ARE

TY&CO is a modern-contemporary dance company based in Austin, Texas, led by Artistic Director Ty Graynor. Its mission is to nurture creativity by existing as an incubator for professional training, creation of new work, and providing evocative experiences through dance, theatre, and film. TY&CO uses classical influences such as Graham, Humphrey, and Limón to honor the legacies of historic dance figures while engaging with themes of current time. Our work aims to illuminate stories deeply rooted in the human psyche, allowing artists and audience members alike to transcend personal boundaries and embrace their innate sovereignty. We work to evoke an environment where contemplation, athleticism, and boundless joy flourish.

We believe that dance is a powerful medium for personal and collective reflection, inspiring audiences to rediscover their own narratives and engage more deeply with the world around them. Through our performances, weekly education, and community outreach, we strive to make art accessible and relatable, bridging the gap between art and everyday life — highlighting the innate connections we share.
