Simon Montalvo | Lead Studio Administrator

Simon Montalvo is a non-binary/transgender movement artist and choreographer born on the land of the Coahuiltecan and Karankawa peoples, now known as South Texas. Over the past 6 years, they’ve been living on the land of the Pawtucket and Massachusett peoples, now referred to as Boston. Since graduating from the Boston Conservatory at Berklee in 2022 with a BFA in Contemporary Dance Performance with an emphasis in Composition and Pedagogy, they’ve been focusing on somatic based and person-oriented movement practices. In 2023 they were awarded a Studio Space Grant through Urbanity Dance to continue in their creative process journey. Their creative approach is centered around healing, community, and growth; holding movement practice and healing as one interchangeable entity. They strive to build a creative environment that feels welcoming and accessible to the communities they serve, and they’re excited about joining Urbanity Dance as the Lead Studio Administrator.
