Liz Sexe is a dance educator, choreographer, and movement artist. Sexe believes that performance is a mode of sharing perspective through a shared embodied experience. In her processes, tasks inspire poetic movement, game theory finds logical, yet often unexpected phrasing, and athletic dancing is paired with deep intentionality. As a performer, she is described in The Isthmus as a “clean and efficient mover,” and having “toughness under her grace.” Within the improvisation space, Liz Sexe likes to challenge the expected and draw attention to the smallest details that exist within the moments.
She grew up dancing at Dance Studio 3-D in Deerfield, WI and fell in love with the practice of movement. She went on to receive a BA from St. Olaf College in Dance and Biology and continued on to receive a MFA from Mills College focusing on Performance and Choreography. Most recently, Sexe is teaching at UW Madison as a Teaching Faculty and working on movement projects with various groups of dancers in the Madison Area.
