Chloe Nagle

Chloe generates her choreography ideas through a process of dance improvisation and journaling. Her choreography and poetry emerge over time. Through this process, the outside world and the inner experience touch. Her poems are documents of the ever changing state of embodiment and personal experience.

Chloe teaches dance, yoga, and Alexander Technique to a diverse student body in community and academic settings, including college-level courses in Contact Improvisation, Introduction to Dance, and Making Dances; Improvisation and Contemporary Dance at Zenon Dance School; Alexander Technique for Singers, Dancers, and Actors at the Ordway Center for the Fellows of the Green Room program; yoga and creative dance to seniors, memory care residents, and as part of the Move MS program; and Contemporary Dance to youth ages 10-18 at Urbana Fine Arts Center.

Chloe received an MFA in Dance from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign and a BFA with honors in Performance and Choreography from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. She is an AmSAT certified teacher of the Alexander Technique and a certified 200 Hour Yoga Instructor.

Chloe Nagle writes interviews with artists about their creative process, talks with them about their recent work, and reviews performances. With a focus on dance and interdisciplinary craft, she’s curious, “how does the artist’s embodied experience inform the work they make and how they make it?”
