Elke Schroeder is an independent dance artist based in Toronto working as a performer, choreographer and teacher. Since graduating from The School of Toronto Dance Theatre in 2005, she has worked with Blue Ceiling Dance, TILT Sound + Motion, Catalyst Dance Company, Lindsay Ritter Dance, Event Horizon Dance, and Toronto Night Artists, and with choreographers Amanda Acorn, Susie Burpee, Vanessa Kimmons, Kate Nankervis, Andrea Nann, and Daryl C. Tracy. Elke continues to train in Europe where she focuses on floor-work technique. Elke is known for her explosive performance quality, skills on the floor and edgy choreographies; she moves like, “an almost literal ball of effervescent energy, like a swiftly tilting planet falling out of orbit” - as described by online review forum Mooney on Theatre (March 2013). She is passionate about teaching and has created a class called FloorWork(ed) taught to professionals and beginners alike. Elke is also a yoga instructor and studies sexuality, a topic that feeds her dance creations.
