The Italian born dancer, performer, and choreographer creates works for dance-theatre, film and exhibitions.
Presence and energy are fundamental elements in her practice .
Her tension and gaze  are aimed at accompanying the dancers/performers in finding their own poetic language, while at the same time urging constant observation of details and precision in movement.

Sara lives in Weimar.


“…the beauty of Sara Simeoni’s dance comes from it’s powerful convergence of movement and emotion…”
Composer James Reynolds over his work with Sara Simeoni WDR TV KulturReportage February 2013.
