Sally Morgan - Biography
Originally from London/Grand Bend Ontario, Sally
Morgan has
been working independently and through her company, Eastward Moving, as a dancer, choreographer, director, filmmaker,
teacher and producer for 13 years. She spent several years based in Toronto and

across Canada and in the USA. She began training professionally in 1994 and has
traveled internationally with studies and work in dance, somatic movement, contact
improvisation and film/video. Her current work is focused on place/space and
identity and she continues to explore improvisation and the connections between
landscape and the body through her performance, research and teaching. The late
Diane Moore and noted teachers/mentors, including Nancy Stark Smith and Simone
Forti, have influenced Sally’s artistic approach.
