Kristina Dillard has well over 20 years of experience teaching dance and other movement styles. She has taught dance at Sarah Lawrence College, Cornish College of the Arts, Edmonds Community College, and Shoreline Community College. Dillard has been performing, creating, and producing work in Seattle since 1993.
She is the artistic director of the Big Red Dance Company, receiving grants from the Seattle Arts Commission, the Washington State Arts Commission, and the Allied Arts Foundation. Her choreography for Big Red Dance has been presented by Cafe Nordo, Velocity, On the Boards, Seattle Center, and 10 Tiny Dances in Seattle and Portland.
Kristina most recently performed with Lucia Neare's Theatrical Wonders. She holds a BFA in Dance from Cornish College of the Arts, and an MFA in Choreography from Sarah Lawrence College.
Dillard believes that dance study should promote creativity and diversity of the individual, with an emphasis on healthy alignment and body image. It is important to challenge and nurture creativity and technique accordingly.
The goal is to encourage kinetically aware, joyful, functional, and healthy physical expression.
