Dr Katrina Rank is an award-winning choreographer and educator based in Naarm, Melbourne, Australia. Her work creates spaces where the imagination flourishes, expressive forces are harnessed and dynamic exchanges occur. A graduate of the Australian Ballet School, she performed in dance companies in Australia and abroad before returning home to undertake further studies including a Bachelor of Education and a PhD in Contemporary Arts (Deakin University 1994 and 2001). Katrina was the first Australian researcher to complete her doctorate through practice-exegesis, forging the way for many others to research via their creative practices.
