Originally from Camas, WA, Macy Sullivan is a NYC-based dancer, collaborator, and teaching artist. She’s worked extensively with Caleb Teicher & Company and has also enjoyed performing with Dance Heginbotham, Merce Cunningham Trust, The Bang Group, and The Chase Brock Experience. Her own work has been performed through Works & Process Artists Virtual Commissions, Center for Innovation in the Arts, and Judson Memorial Church, and she’s been on creative teams as a movement specialist for theatre works by Tyne Rafaeli and Helen Cespedes. Passionate about teaching, she recently joined the inaugural faculty of 92Y's Gotta Swing!

Sullivan is also working on multiple education initiatives at New York City Center and continues to teach for both Together in Dance, which facilitates creative movement residencies in public schools, and Dance for PD®, which offers free dance classes to people with Parkinson’s Disease. Sullivan holds a BFA in Dance from The Juilliard School (Martha Hill Prize, John Erskine Prize, Choreographic Honors). In recent years, she’s fallen in love with Lindy Hop and is eagerly exploring both lead and follow roles.
