The Moving Company is the University of Nebraska at Omaha's modern dance performing group. It is under the auspices of the School of Health, Physical Education, and Recreation, and auditions are open to all University students and members of the Omaha community. It is an intergenerational company with a mission to create new works and to restage historical pieces. UNO does not have a dance major or minor so the Company members include students from various disciplines ranging from engineering to criminal justice to communications. The Company has been in existence since 1935 (called Orchesis in the early years) and has sponsored residencies and/or master classes with numerous companies and artists including Alwin Nikolais, Alvin Ailey, Bill Evans, Dance Theatre of Harlem, Joffrey Ballet, Pilobolus, Victoria Marks, Carol Mezzacappa, Sara Pearson, Patrik Widrig, Shirley Ririe, and Jeff Curtis.

The Moving Company annually presents a salon or studio production and produces or participates in a formal modern dance concert. Most recently, the Company has collaborated with the Joslyn Art Museum, the Omaha Public Library, Holland Center for the Performing Arts, Creighton Dance Company and the Durham Western Heritage Museum. The Company hosts a "Dance for the People Series" that offers Tribal Style Belly Dancing, Latin Dance, Social Dance, African Dance and Drumming and International Folk Dance.
