UMOJA has been recognized as one of New Jersey’s premier dance companies. Within the past nine years UMOJA has achieved many important milestones. UMOJA was selected to perform at Aaron Davis Hall as a part of the New Vision/New Voices Choreography Showcase for People of Color, curated by Gus Solomons, Jr. The company was presented for two consecutive years by The New Jersey Performing Arts Center for its Kwanzaa Celebration. UMOJA appeared on NBC Today (a Saturday morning News program) in celebration of Black History month.

February 2001, Love had the honor of being commissioned by two outstanding New Jersey organizations: The Westfield Symphony Orchestra and the NJ Chamber Music Society. Westfield’s conductor David Wroe selected Love to choreography a new piece to Darius Milhaud’s “Le Creation du Monde.” The piece was an eclectic blend of West African and modern dance that premiered at the Union County Arts Center in Rahway, NJ. The NJ Chamber Music Society commissioned Love’s choreography for two West African tales, Anansi the Spider and the Rabbit at the Water Hole. She was joined by Linda Goss, Storyteller and Paul Arslanian composer.
