Jeremy Guyton

Jeremy is a performer, choreographer, educator, alchemist, dreamer, and new world conjurer. Born and raised in Los Angeles, he was first introduced to movement styles birthed in his hometown: krump and jerking. The vibrations of the city in which he was raised tickled flesh and sinew and set the foundation for his movement vocabulary. Upon graduation from high school, his curiosity led him to the Mid-Atlantic, where he graduated from Georgetown University with a BA in Theater and Performance Studies. Upon graduation, he moved to New Orleans, Louisiana and began working in education, teaching kindergarten at Success Preparatory Academy and a weekly dance class at Dancing Grounds. He soon became the Youth Programs Director at Dancing Grounds and served in this role for four years. In this role, he co-organized the second Dance for Social Change Festival in which the focus pivoted to youth dance and performance. He is currently in Tallahassee, Florida obtaining his MFA in choreography and performance from Florida State University.

He is also a company member of KM Dance Project and Goat in the Road Productions, core artist with Junebug Productions, and member of the inaugural re:frame cohort. As a choreographer and dancer, credits include: Solange Knowles, Maya Taylor, Aluna, Chris Emile, Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeros, Kristin Sudeikis, Jawole Willa Jo Zollar, Kesha McKey, Leyla McCallah and Kiyoko McCrae, and B.U.K.U.
