Christin Olesen | Technique-Driven Jazz Choreography at The Manor LDN

Sharp technique, sensual style — inside Christin Olesen's choreography at The Manor LDN

Choreography by Christin Olesen

Christin Olesen doesn't just teach technique — she teaches how to own it. As both a choreographer and a teacher, she brings more than movement into the room: she brings inspiration. Her choreography is known for its emotional depth, striking originality, and physical boldness, built on a jazz foundation with contemporary elements and an unmistakably sensual edge. Each piece she creates feels like a conversation — full of nuance and intention.

Perhaps even more powerful is the way she teaches it. Olesen has a rare ability to connect with dancers at every level, encouraging them to dig deeper, take risks, and discover their own artistic voices within technically demanding choreography. Filmed at London's prestige dance studio - The Manor LDN located in Finsbury Park, this session captures exactly that balance: precision sharpened by character, technique that never loses its edge.
