Bio
The New York Times has called Melissa Riker's choreography "sometimes comically acrobatic, sometimes gracefully classical...visually arresting."
Kinesis Project is pushing the boundaries of what changes space and people by placing movement and stillness in unusual and inspiring spaces.
Kinesis Project dance theatre is a rousing combination of dancers able to teach a wide variety of master classes and create creative and intelligent ways of engaging audience of all ages.
Melissa Riker has a background in ballet, modern dance, circus and martial arts. She is a choreographer, dancer, writer and director and revels in finding new ways of exploring dance. Riker will often be the catalyst for people who don't usually consider themselves dancers suddenly finding themselves dancing, or contributing to a dance.
