Project By
Connected as Nicole Bindler (2057 friends)
I am an experimental dance artist, inspired by my studies of new dance, dance-theater, contact improvisation, and butoh. I'm also a bodyworker and use healing practices, such as body-mind centering, yoga and feldenkrais, as a source of creativity, inspiration and physical training.
Dance is a social art form and I'm a promiscuous collaborator. I'm mostly known for my collaborations with avant-garde musicians, but I also work with other dance, theater and visual artists. I have choreographed over 20 original dance works, and have performed over 200 improvised dances in cities throughout the U.S., Canada, Argentina and in Berlin, Tokyo and Beirut.
I'm currently practicing free improvisation: dances without any predetermined plan. My work is always site-specific in that I seek to activate and enliven all spaces that I dance in, whether they are theaters, studios, homes, places of business or the outdoors. I also seek to connect audience members to their own embodied, corporeal experience with the immediacy and spontaneity of performance.
