Anna Casey

Anna is a movement artist, educator and dance producer living and working in the South West of England. Anna regularly lectures in higher education, most recently on the Movement, Mind and Ecology MA at Schumacher College. Anna also works within community contexts where she developed her Creative Movement for Learning programme.  

Anna was a founder member of Blank Studio's in Brighton, creating a hub for interdisciplinary practice, research and performance. 

Anna has a particular interest in dialogues between the human and non-human worlds and how these can be utilised to generate a greater understanding of true sustainability. In response to this she has developed her own somatic movement pedagogy ‘The Listening Body’ a process of developing conversation with the field of self (human) and the environment through the multi-sensory listening with the human and more than human worlds.
