Class instructor:
Instructor Bio: Annalee Traylor is a creator, choreographer, director, and educator originally from Huntsville, AL. Traylor's tragicomic worlds orbit the intersection of theatre and dance. Perpetually guided by intuition, her creative practice is nourished by interdisciplinary collaboration and anchored in highly physical, archetypal, and state-based research. Ultimately, she views her work as a continuous exploration of physical expressivity and its boundlessness to elucidate the human experience.
Traylor's work has been presented nationally and abroad in LA, NYC, Pittsburgh,
Atlanta, Houston, Seattle, Temecula, Brooklyn, Durham, the Netherlands, Italy, and
Portugal, and at venues including Battery Park, Green Space, New Hazlett Theatre,
Ailey Citigroup Theatre, Diavolo, Ferst Center for the Arts, Kelly Strayhorn Theatre,
Gibney, and Highways Performance Space, among others. She has been commissioned by Emory University, Kennesaw State University, Periapsis Music and Dance, Texture Contemporary Ballet, Point Park University's International Summer Dance, REED Dance, The Dance Gallery Festival, Houston Contemporary II, Dance Canvas, Voices Carry Inc and was recently chosen as a choreographer for Dance Lab NY, working with artists of Korzo Theater in The Hague, Netherlands.
Her guest teaching credits include Carnegie Mellon University, Sam Houston State
University, Point Park University, Slippery Rock University with the August Wilson Center Dance Ensemble, Dekalb School of the Arts, The Creative and Performing Arts High School (Pittsburgh), and the virtual international dance school, Ballet Together, among many other pre-professional programs, schools, and studios throughout the US.
Traylor is a high school graduate of UNCSA and received her BFA from Point Park
University and MFA in Choreography from the California Institute of the Arts. She is
also a certified Pilates instructor through Romana's Pilates.

In Support of Core Dance
For four decades, Core Dance has supported innovation, collaboration, artistic risk-taking and sustainable art-making in dance. An award-winning contemporary dance organization with global reach, Core Dance creates, performs, and produces compelling original dance that ignites the creative spirit and actively encourages participation and conversation with the community. In 1980, Core Dance was co-founded in Houston, Texas by dancer and choreographer Sue Schroeder and her sister, Kathy Russell. Five years later, the organization added Atlanta, Georgia as a second home base, creating a platform for dance that is relevant in both cities and around the globe. Core Dance uses dance to educate, question and illuminate, and is internationally recognized for its artistically driven research practices, cross-cultural and multi-disciplinary collaborations, the humanity of the individual Dance Artists, and its rigorous physicality.
