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.

I am thrilled to be the winner of the 2024 Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Fight Choreography for my work on Water for Elephants. I am humbled by this honor and so proud to be a part of this company. This bold, big(top) musical is currently running on Broadway at the Imperial Theater. Get your tickets today!
I've had a couple of lovely trips to the windy city of Chicago, first to support a raucous fight scene in the new musical adaptation of Death Becomes Her and later to teach a weekend intimacy workshop to some exciting future intimacy professionals!
More exciting movement design gigs to come this fall!
