PaIge Geissler

Paige Geissler, originally from Chicago, began her professional dance training under the direction of Kate Jablonski at Beyond Words Dance Company. While training, she had the honor to perform off-Broadway in Jablonski’s production: Beyond Words, at New World Stages Theatre in New York in 2010. She also performed with Jablonski’s professional company, The Kate Jablonski Statement, in Tabula Rasa sponsored by Dance Chicago in 2014. 

​

In 2016, Paige moved to Long Beach, California to pursue her BFA in Dance at California State University, Long Beach where she earned to dance on scholarship. She was featured in works by guest artists Mark Morris, Kevin Williamson, as well as numerous other faculty and student works. 

​

As a choreographer and mover, her work dives deep into vulnerability, authenticity, and human connection. She craves to have individuals to slow down and explore their artistic voices as humans and artists, which will allow them to uncover themselves to take risks and have agency on stage. While creating, she often explores, and experiences the idea of being effortless through different movement dynamics, which shapes her into the artist she is today. Her most recent choreography, in collaboration with Lauren Malone, was presented at Eccles Theater, in Salt Lake City Utah entitled Two Perspectives in Spring of 2025.

​

Along with her freelancing lifestyle of dancing and presenting work, Paige currently dances with push/FOLD, a contemporary dance company in Portland, Oregon. Shortly before moving to Portland in August 2024, she has been honored to work with three Chicago based dance companies — Alluvion Dance Chicago, Aerial Dance Chicago, and The Kate Jablonski Statement. Paige has toured all over the states, though a highlight was touring to Šibenik, Croatia. There she danced with The Kate Jablonski Statement in their production Dream State in summer of 2022. She was invited back to Europe in the summer of 2023 to work with FLOCK and Juliano Nunes in Italy.

While she is not practicing her craft of dance, she loves to teach Pilates (certified through Body Arts and Science International with a Dance Specialization), rock climb, and travel!
