Biography of Anthea Browne

Anthea Browne has recently arrived in Montreal from Vancouver Island, where she founded and ran a successful yoga and dance school. Anthea’s 25 years of teaching experience are rooted in formative ballet training, with a dance teaching degree from Ryerson University.

Throughout concurrent careers as a comtemporary dancer, personal trainer, and yoga and dance instructor, Anthea has gained international popularity as an empathetic, inspiring, and knowledgeable teacher. Among Anthea’s more recent accomplishments is the creation and performance of multigenerational dance group ’Stark Raven Dance’. Stark Raven was known on the West Coast for thought-provoking, site-specific work, often challenging traditional audience/performer barriers. Anthea also produced a twice yearly studio performance of a variety of works by local and invited artists, as well as instigating and supporting larger productions as a co-creator of fusion project Amazon Dance. She regularly performs both solo work and in projects created by other dance independents.
