Sorzano Dance Works
Sorzano Dance Works is the artistic home of dancer, educator, and choreographer Yusha-Marie Sorzano. Originally from Trinidad and Tobago, Sorzano performed principal roles with Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater and toured internationally with Complexions Contemporary Ballet, BODYTRAFFIC, Morphoses, and Camille A. Brown & Dancers. She has embodied works by choreographers including Dianne McIntyre, Kyle Abraham, Jermaine Spivey, and Spenser Theberge. Her choreography has led to collaborations across music and movement—most recently with the U.K.’s Phoenix Dance Theatre—and to A Ballet Through Mud, a collaboration with Wu-Tang Clan founder RZA.
Sorzano is currently an MFA candidate in Interdisciplinary Dance Research at NYU. Her work draws from the rhythms of her Caribbean upbringing and the rigor of her classical training. She creates where those lineages meet—where identity, migration, and memory move through the body as lived experience.
