Connor Downer

All Abilities Dance Faculty

Connor began their dance journey at the age of 4 in Northern Colorado, with a focus on ballet, jazz, contemporary and lyrical. It was during those early years that their passion for art and creative movement was ignited. Connor continued to pursue their training within Colorado, along with a receiving instruction from G. Madison, Richard Elszy and WildaBeast while in L.A. In 2019, Connor moved to Tianjin, China where they created and implemented an all-abilities dance program for the children living at Shepherd's Field Children's Village, a special needs orphan home. Connor has also had the pleasure of working at Lighthouse Dance, Dance Express, and Rez Dance. Besides dance, Connor has a passion for social justice and is currently working full-time at a national non-profit for older adults.
