Karin Stevens is a Seattle-based choreographer, performer, writer, and facilitator in somatic and spiritual healing. Through her dance company, Karin Stevens Dance (2009–present), she creates at the interchange of movement, art, ecology, spirit, and humanity. She believes we must commune, collaborate, and converse through movement, sound, and ideas to co-create visionary art in response to our current crises—art that serves as a healing space, performatively engaged in a transformational relationship with the world around us. Since 1999, Karin has created over ninety professional concert dance, theater, and education-based movement works, and has produced more than twenty evening-length concerts. These include Sea Change Within Us (2019; reimagined in 2025), produced in partnership with Gonzaga University, Seattle Art Museum, and the University of Washington’s EarthLab and Washington Sea Grant, with sponsorship from NOAA. She holds an MFA in Choreography and Performance from Mills College and a BA in Dance from the University of Washington. Her work has been supported by 4Culture, Seattle Office of Arts & Culture, ArtsWA, National Endowment for the Arts, Artist Trust, ArtsFund, Kawasaki Foundation, Abundant Blessing Foundation, Seattle International Dance Festival, and Earth Creative. Karin Stevens Dance holds that dance is a radical and vital art form for our collective future in the 21st century.
