Kelly McInnes

Dance Artist

Kelly McInnes (she/they), a settler of Irish, Scottish & British ancestry, is gratefully based on the unceded Coast Salish territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations. Kelly works as a choreographer, performer, facilitator, creative consultant and craniosacral therapy practitioner. Kelly creates as a way to remember our interconnection with all living Earth. Often multi-disciplinary, collaborative and site specific, Kelly's work has been presented in festivals in Canada, Germany, Spain and Mexico over the last decade. As a performance collaborator, Kelly has had the pleasure to work with many choreographers and companies over the years, most recently dancing the works of Tasha Faye Evans, Eddy van Wyk & soma anima arts/Rachel Helton. Kelly delights in sharing dance through community classes & collaborative creative processes with youth, adults & seniors. Her most recent project Late Stage Remedy, a collective dance meditation, invites folks to slow down and connect, bringing presence and love to the lands upon which they dance. kellymcinnes.com
