Quinn Houlahan
Quinn Houlahan is in her third season with Danceworks Boston. She began her dance training at the age of four and has studied Ballet, Pointe, Jazz, Tap, Hip Hop, Contemporary, and Modern with some of the best teachers on the Seacoast. In 2014, she joined New England Dance Project—a competitive dance company with a focus on movement artistry—where she began choreographing for her peers. Quinn continued dancing in college as a member of the DU Contemporary Team at Trinity College Dublin and at Columbia University where she served as the co-artistic director of Onyx Hip Hop Dance Troupe. She graduated from Trinity College Dublin with a degree in European Studies [History, Sociology, French, Italian] and from Columbia University with a degree in Political Science in 2023.
Based in New Hampshire, Quinn teaches Contemporary classes to students of all ages at Belletete Ballet Studio and choreographs for the studio's competition team. Outside of dance, Quinn is a Clinical Trial Associate in Oncology and spends her free time with her family and caring for her pets [dogs, bunnies, chickens, fish…she would own a Highland cow too if she could]. She is thrilled to have the opportunity to share her love of dance and passion for movement exploration with the DanceWorks community as a choreographer for Season 27!
