Cha the Movement Designer
My movement work marries technical skill, embodied listening, and physical storytelling. It works in partnership, in heightened stakes, in the exploration of the human form, and in the primacy of consent in creativity. It comes in the forms of choreographed violence, intimacy, dance, and more.

My work can currently be seen at the riotous and resplendent Death Becomes Her (Broadway, fight direction) and the absolute party that is & Juliet (Broadway & Nat'l Tour, intimacy direction).
I was thrilled to be the winner of the 2024 Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Fight Choreography for my work on Water for Elephants -- humbled by the honor and so proud to be a part of the company. Although this bold, big(top) musical has closed on Broadway, it's coming to a city near you for a national tour starting this fall!
