KATERINA ENG BECKMAN

Katerina is a choreographer and creative facilitator whose work is grounded in collaboration and interdisciplinary exploration. She is driven by a desire to dissolve boundaries between artistic mediums, positioning movement not as ornament, but as a vital force for narrative.

Each project is approached as an opportunity to cultivate spaces that are nourishing, empowering, and deeply human.

Katerina was choreographer for the feature film Josephine, written and directed by Beth de Araújo, with cinematography by Greta Zozula and film score by Miles Ross, starring Gemma Chan, Channing Tatum, and Mason Reeves.

In partnership with Rise Arts Collective, she co-created and choreographed the short films As Big as the Sky and Veiled. She has created movement for fashion designers including Christian Siriano, Tory Burch, Lan Jaenicke, Camelia Skikos, and Victor Tung.

Katerina holds a BFA in Dance from The Juilliard School. She was a member of the American Ballet Theatre Studio Company and received her ballet training from The San Francisco Ballet School.

She is proud of her Peranakan and Australian heritage and holds dual citizenship in the United States and Australia.
