Guest: Hannah Seiden
Movement Artist & Pelvic Pain Advocate
In Episode 7, we talk with Hannah about topics ranging from wild freelance dance experiences, to the confusion and frustration of chronic pain, to dancing from your perineum, to the difference between dancer and movement artist, to wanting our goddamn headshot back after an audition.
***We do need to include this Activation Warning***
In this episode we discuss themes surrounding:
Please take care of your body as some of the topics we cover in this episode have the potential to bring up emotions, memories and tender subjects that may require some aftercare. We understand far too many bodies have experiences where they were not safe and we want to ensure your nervous system has a heads up before you head into this episode.***
Hannah (she / her) from Boulder, CO, is a freelance dance artist based in New York City. She graduated with honors from NYU Tisch School of the Arts with a B.F.A. in Dance. She has performed both nationally and internationally in works by Alexis Blake, MICHIYAYA Dance, Sidra Bell, Itzik Galili, Kate Harpootlian, Stacey Tookey, Ohad Naharin, Shannon Gillen, Larry Keigwin, Merce Cunningham, Sonya Tayeh and many others. Along with live performance, she has danced and choreographed in music videos, films, and ads for numerous artists and companies including THINX and MAC Cosmetics. Most recently, she finished filming Mean Girls, the Musical. She has shown her choreography in Connecticut, Colorado, California, and NYC. Hannah choreographs and teaches various styles of dance and Pilates to people of all ages around the world.
Just a quick note, Hannah’s audio was a bit distorted despite multiple attempts at troubleshooting both during the recording and in post. The content was too important to not share and way too magical to re-record. So if you notice her audio, it sounds a bit like a phone call and is a bit louder in comparison to Eileen and Amy’s tracks. We appreciate your understanding.
