Tempered Body - Our resident company
Tempered Body
Tempered Body Dance Company is a London-based dance collective collaborating with established artists from extra-dance disciplines. Founded in 2007 by Canadian choreographer Maddy Wynne-Jones, Tempered Body Dance Company aims to harness the creative energy generated by the fusion of diverse individual constituents and channel it toward original, thought-provoking and emotively powerful performance pieces.
With the dancers in the company Maddy Wynne-Jones creates work that investigates the integrity and strength of the human body and the frailty of the emotional landscape:“thrilling and daring; sometimes tender, sometimes brutal” (Michelle Harris, London Dance). The company is gaining momentum, supported by the residency at Chisenhale: 2009 saw the launch of Tempered Body’s Youth Dance Company as well as a series of professional development workshops, the creation of new work and performance series.
