ABOUT haus

Temria Dance Haus is the creation of Temria Airmet to inhabit her choreography, teaching, and advocacy in the dance community. Temria holds her MFA in Dance from California State University Long Beach (2019) and her BFA in Modern Dance from the University of Utah (2009). Airmet currently teaches in higher education with San Bernardino Valley College and in studio with Top-Billing Entertainment and Pasadena Dance Theatre. Airmet teaches Movement Therapy throughout the Los Angeles, Southern California, and the San Bernardino Valleys to support her belief that movement and motion can heal the body and support the mind. She was the Co/Creator and Artistic Director of Myriad Dance Company from 2015-2017. Airmet has performed professionally with Tipsy Point Projects, Brine Arts, Arts of Chaos, Transfusion Hype, and Voodoo Productions. She has taught with Oxnard College, California State University Long Beach, MINDing MOTION, Ballet West, Millennium Dance Complex, the University of Utah’s Tanner Dance, and other studios and companies throughout Utah and California. Airmet's work celebrates diversity through politically-charged contemporary dance. As an American woman in today’s media-driven environment she is overtly aware of the United States’ quest for equality in all forms. She sees a country divided by social injustices and is curious as to where the common ground lives. It is within this space that Airmet takes on these complex ideas and turns them into artistic expression. With all her work, she intends to bring clarity to a complicated world and beauty to a disturbing climate. Airmet knows art as a means to better understand the human experience and she does everything she can to support her fellow artists and grow the voice of the dance community from a local to global scale.
