AMY SANTOS

BATTERY DANCE FESTIVAL MANAGER

Amy Santos has spent her lifetime in the NYC dance community, both on stage and behind the scenes.

As an arts manager, she has worked with Merce Cunningham, Lucinda Childs, Meredith Monk, and Martha Graham. As a performer, she has worked with Stanley Love Performance Group, C. Eule Dance, The Kathak Ensemble, Glen Rumsey, Edie Nightcrawler, and others.

Amy is also a professional musician, and enjoys singing with Heather Christian and playing upright bass for her original music project, Sunshine Nights.

As a level 2 authorized instructor in the Ashtanga Yoga tradition, Amy spent the last 12 years directing and teaching her own full time Mysore program in Brooklyn. She is very much looking forward to reconnecting to her dance roots through Battery Dance Festival.
