Uri Sands stepped down from his leadership role at TU Dance on December 31 after it came to light that an ex-employee of the company had filed a lawsuit against him alleging sexual misconduct and “non-consensual sexual intercourse.” While a lawyer for Sands admitted that Sands and the unnamed ex-employee had engaged in a sexual relationship, the former company director denied all claims of misconduct.
