In this episode of Hogfish Resonance, host Hillary S. Webb, Ph.D. interviews movement artist, Kate Tsuruharatani, who shares her transformative journey from traditional dance to a more holistic and somatically grounded practice.

The conversation covers the concept of a movement artist, the challenges of navigating the professional dance world as a trans woman, her innovative teaching methods that focus on internal sensations and textures rather than external forms.

Through personal anecdotes and poignant insights, this episode explores the intersection of liberation, artistic expression, and the unlearning of conventional approaches in the performing arts.
