Sebastian is a dancer, choreographer, and teacher whose practice centres on accessing the body’s deep potential through ease, somatic awareness, play, and the pursuit of connecting to his most authentic self. His relationship with movement has become even more sacred through lived experiences of illness, shaping his relationship to dance as both an expressive art form and a practise of renewal.

A graduate of the New Zealand School of Dance, Sebastian has worked with a range of artists and companies across Aotearoa and Australia, including Lucy Guerin Inc, Australian Dance Theatre, Footnote New Zealand Dance, and the New Zealand Dance Company.

As a choreographer, Sebastian draws from the depths of his own life experiences while celebrating the joy and liberation of moving in space. For him, dance is both a gift and a reminder of how lucky we are to have the opportunity to dance through life.
