BODYTRAFFIC

What moment has been the highlight of your time here?

Jordyn: I think one of my highlights of my BodyTraffic experience has to be the premiere of my first work Coalescence at the Avalon- specifically the feeling that I had during the bow. I could feel the love from my fellow ladies on stage by my side, I could hear the boys of BT shouting from the wings and I will never forget the rush from the audience. I feel honored to have gotten the love, support and opportunity to be able to share my voice on such a large platform. And the fact that I got to also share a choreographic work and process with Pedro this year, a true melding of the minds- my first choreographic collaboration and one that I will never forget. In the end, getting to experience the stage and space over and over again with the people that I love and admire is something that I will never take for granted. Thank you Tina for trusting, mentoring and accepting me and my artistic voice.

Today we honor the memory of Dito van Reigersberg, beloved husband of our dear Matthew Neenan.

Matthew is family to BODYTRAFFIC — an artist whose work has touched us deeply. His I Forgot The Start was born from his love with Dito, and it carries the tenderness, intimacy, and beauty of the life they shared.

Through Matthew’s artistry, we have been given a glimpse of that love. Today, we honor Dito’s memory, and we hold Matthew close in our hearts.

What will you miss the most about BODYTRAFFIC?
Katie: I’ll miss the people here the most. BODYTRAFFIC has been more than a company — it’s been a family. The daily collaboration, the laughter, the support, the shared fatigue and the artistry we shared created such a wholesome environment. I’ll ultimately just really miss seeing them everyday. They are people I genuinely love, immensely admire and truly enjoy sharing all my time with.

What moment has been the highlight of your time here?
After the curtain closed on my first show with the company, I remember running around the stage, screaming at the top of my lungs “I just finished my professional debut!!!!!” — I was a met with a big group hug and the most beautiful smiles around me. I remember the love and joy and celebration in that moment specifically.
