Colin Connor

Colin Connor’s wide ranging dance career encompasses being the award winning choreographer of over sixty works, the Artistic Director of the American legacy Limón Dance Company, an educator at many of the world’s foremost dance centers, a Professor Emeritus at the California Institute for the Arts, and a widely recognized dancer.

Born in London, UK, Mr. Connor began dancing in Canada, was a soloist with the Limón Dance Company for eight years, guest performed with several other companies, and toured extensively with his own work. His dancing prompted responses such as “wheels and pitches like a sun falling through the heavens” in the New York Times, “Achieving moments of great beauty and showing that intensity of movement which is characteristic of really fine dancers” in Spain’s El Pais, and “The dancer with force in his blood moves differently from the one who wears his nerves on the edge of the skin” in Mexico’s Uno Mas Uno.
