Alexis is an active dance artist and teacher who performs for other choreographers as well as producing her own work. Since 2008 Alexis has been developing movement curriculums emphasizing functional anatomy in a variety of private and group settings. While her classes and bodywork sessions are deeply informed by her dance practice, Alexis strives to utilize dynamic language and movement vocabularies – accessible to everyone – for depicting anatomy and evoking movement. Alexis periodically travels to Estonia where she maintains a bodywork practice and teaches contemporary dance technique and yoga as a guest artist for the Tallinn University Department of Dance.
