About Suzanne

I draw on somatic practices, dance/theatre and Japanese art forms to contextualize my choreography. My practices - contact improvisation, ensemble improv, Laban, Alexander Technique, functional movement, Taiko, and Butoh - are linked together through physical, collective, and cultural/social embodiment. I create using emotion/social/cultural-based imagery, the spectrum spanning tension and release, and character development through sensory impulses. ​
