PERFORMER | CHOREOGRAPHER | TEACHER | ARTISTIC DIRECTOR  

Alesandra Seutin is a choreographer, performer, and director whose distinctive multidisciplinary approach weaves together movement, text, and music to explore identity, memory, and the politics of the body.

Her artistic journey has led her from performing in numerous international productions to creating her own company, Alesandra Seutin (formerly Vocab Dance), in 2007. Through this platform, she has built a diverse body of work, earning acclaim for her poetic, politically engaged pieces that interrogate notions of power, belonging, and place.

Deeply committed to teaching and transmission, Alesandra trained at Trinity Laban Conservatoire and Middlesex University in London before immersing herself in the Acogny Technique in Senegal, under the guidance of Germaine Acogny. Today, she is recognised as a worldwide ambassador and teacher of the technique, regularly invited to lead masterclasses across Europe, Africa, and beyond.

Alesandra has led projects as Guest Artistic Director of the UK’s National Youth Dance Company (2019–2021) and Co-Artistic Director of Ecole des Sables in Senegal (2020–2024). She has received over 20 commissions from international institutions including Sadler’s Wells, KVS Brussels, and Phoenix Dance Theatre.

She is currently a face of KVS, Brussels and an Associate Artist at Sadler’s Wells, London. Seutin was also awarded the Golden Afro Artistic Award for Dance & Choreography in Belgium in 2023 and her production Mimi’s Shebeen has been nominated in the Best Dance Production category at the 2026 Olivier Awards.
