SOPHIA TWEED AHMAD
Sophia Tweed Ahmad is a mover, experimental choreographer & performer who thrives on being inverted, accompanied by singing & preferably in nature. Over the years she has been exploring the intersections of identity, ancestry and the voice. Her movement training stems from release technique, contact improvisation, capoeira, presence & flying-low.
She received her postgrad in Contemporary Dance & Creation at Area Dansa in Spain (22-23) & holds a B.A. in International Studies + Environmental Studies from UNCA. Her choreography has been presented by Ten Tiny Dances, Performance Works NW, Stripart Festival & Choreoscope Dance Film Festival.
