STREB’s mission is to support, perform, and share widely the work of choreographer Elizabeth Streb. Built around Streb’s organizing principle “Extreme Action,” a movement style that thrills participants, audiences and students with choreographed feats of physicality, scientifically planned chaos, strength, risk, grace, and elegance, STREB actively engages with, ensures inclusion of, and advances cultural equity for its diverse staff, audiences and communities. This is achieved via a broad range of performance, engagement and education programming that provides access to, and participation in, creation and presentation.

Arrange a group visit to a STREB EXTREME ACTION rehearsal. All Company rehearsals are free and open to the public, but a group visit can be arranged to also include a focused conversation with Elizabeth Streb and the Action Heroes where your group will get a peek into the creative process.

in-school residencies
Each year, STREB collaborates with schools and community groups both at their homes and at SLAM to design programs that encourage participants to explore, exchange, create and connect.
Semester and year-long residencies allow students to participate in weekly sessions in school—scaffolding on a dance or a physical education curriculum—with a team of STREB Action Heroes. School residencies may culminate in a field trip or a performance for peers, teachers and families.
This program is supported, in part, by the New York State Council of the Arts with the support of the office of the governor and the New York state legislature.

November 14-29, 2026
Feel the undeniable intensity of real movement as the fearless Action Heroes of STREB EXTREME ACTION fall, flip, fly and crash in a marathon of physical fortitude. Across a series of action events choreographed by daredevil Elizabeth Streb, she and her Action Heroes name the impossible and then do it. Busting out of their comfort zones, they harness the power of life’s invisible forces—gravity, velocity, momentum, impact—to propel their bodies where most would never go. They slam to the ground, explode into the air and inspire genuine athletic awe. But no: DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME.
