Alana
Burree
Alana began her discovery of modern dance with Kay Fulton in Santa Barbara, CA while perusing a culinary arts degree. She soon left the kitchen and went to Kingston, Jamaica to dive into Cuban Modern and Traditional Jamaican Folk dance. Studying under teachers including Shelly Maxwell and O'niel Price she got a glimpse of athletic rhythmic movement that she had never experienced. With tons of college credits and a passion for this thing called modern dance she moved to England where she graduated with a BA in Dance from York St. John University in 2008. Working with an amazing group of professors such as Beth Cassani, Rita Marcalo and Christy Adair, Alana trained in release based technique for two years. Since graduating, she has performed internationally with various companies including; 103 Falling Birds, Karma Dance, Turvey World Dance, Sonne Blauma and been a part of projects directed by choreographers such as Wayne Mcgregor, David Dorfman, Larry Keigwan and Matthew Nelson.
