Anna Lindstrom

Working from the inside out Anna’s style provides sensibility with a specific storytelling style. She brings storytelling through movement to life by giving dancers freedom to use emotion. Feeling deeply is important and everyone should be given the opportunity to feel within, whether you’re the audience or performer. On the other side as a dancer Anna is Passionate, reliable, and hardworking. Fluent in many styles she will execute anything that is given to her. Similar to her choreography style she dances to feel emotion from the inside out.
