Susannah Keebler is a dancer, choreographer, educator, certified teacher of the Alexander Technique, and yoga instructor, with a Master of Dance from the Victorian College of the Arts, University of Melbourne, AUS and BA (dance) from Bennington College, VT, USA. Susannah lived and worked as a dancer for ten years in New York City before moving to the remote-rural town Mallacoota, VIC in 2008.

Currently, Susannah is a PhD candidate at the University of New South Wales, researching continuity and disruption of regional dance as creative practice in the context of crisis. She is inspired by collaboration, her environments, transformation, the revelation of imagination, and the unexpectedness of both the every-day and the extraordinary.

During Project Alchemy Susannah has been delighted to participate in this burgeoning network of artists working at the junction of art and life as well making bridges across communities and localities. She particularly relished connecting with fellow regional performing artists and collaborating in leading the multi-disciplinary workshops, “Move, Draw, Sing, Restore” in the Bega and Eurobodalla shires. Susannah is looking forward to what lies ahead for the Alchemy collective and taking these collaborations into the future.
