Dancer

Jenna Broas gained a BA from London Contemporary Dance School at The Place in 2014 and an MA from the Theatre Academy of the University of Arts Helsinki in 2017. She has danced in Finland and England, collaborating with choreographers including Johanna Nuutinen, Sara Gurevitsch, Jenni-Elina von Bagh, Anders Duckworth and Carolyn Deby.

With her artistic work Jenna studies the possibilities of virtuosic movement, and the relationships between organic and inorganic.

Broas began working at the Company as a trainee on MESH in 2016, becoming a visiting dancer in 2018. www.jennabroas.com
