About Christian

Christian Burns is a Teaching Artist, Performer, and Choreographer. His body of work is built upon interdisciplinary projects relating to the intersection of Improvisation, Choreography, and Training. Some of his collaborators include Hope Mohr, Bobbi Jene Smith, Alessio Silvestrin, Chris Aiken, Ray Chung, Eric Beauschsne, Shinichi Lova-Koga, and Kirstie Simson among others. He was a guest artist with The Forsythe Company and a member of Alonzo King Lines Ballet and James Sewell Ballet among others. He helped create burnsWORK, The Foundry, and Parsons Hall Project Space. His formal training from The School of American Ballet has been complemented by 25 years of Contact Improvisation and Somatic movement practice. He has been commissioned for his choreography and master teaching by dance companies and universities throughout the US, Europe, and Asia. He has been awarded numerous fellowships, residencies, grants, and commissions, as well as being a contributor for When Men Dance; Choreographing Masculinities Across Borders (Oxford University Press). He is currently expanding his new virtual 1:1 coaching program for Improvisational research and continues to be a long-standing faculty member of Alonzo King Lines Ballet Training Program, an Adjunct Professor for Lines Ballet BFA at Dominican University, and in 2023 I was a Guest Lecturer for the Stanford University Dept. of Theater & Performance Studies teaching Contact Improvisation and Interdisciplinary Movement courses.

English

I bring 30 years of professional experience to helping my clients reconnect to what they feel is most essential and meaningful about their dance or movement practice.

By using a broad range of tactics I help my clients to precisely engage the skills, techniques, perspectives, and mindsets they need for clear and effective communication through dance.

My clients range from being; seasoned performing artists, newly professional dancers, emerging and mid-career choreographers, trainers, and ‘regular people’ who live creatively outside of labels but want to further their improvisational practices.

This new coaching practice is not simply “teaching a dance class” to an immersive one-on-one training program that is initiated by you, facilitated by me, and engaged by both of us. This means our process can lean in many different directions, there is no limitation to the kind of dialogue you wish to explore.

Details

I want you to consider me an investment in your dance future. My rate reflects the high quality of engagement you will receive, which affords you access to knowledge I have attained through working with some of the worlds leading contemporary dance choreographers and performers.
I position my fee proportionate to the cost of a private pilates session, a private training session, or body work. It works best if you have a specific goal in mind and want to commit to a process lasting a minimum of 4 sessions.
Working with me One-on-One is an investment in your long term goals, rather than a common dance class.
