Hello All!

I am thrilled to be joining my friends in Troy, NY for the 6th annual At First Glance performance which takes place every year at the Arts Center of the Capital Region.  I will be premiering a new extended version of my solo One Small Thing that will be performed again at the ACDA in West Chester later next month.  I will also be performing the first iteration of a larger work later to come with my friend Laura Teeter.  In Siren Study  you can expect some sensuality and a bit of hair flipping.  Performances are free of charge and start at 6pm and 7:30pm.  Each one will run approximately 40 minutes and in this casual setting you may come and go as you please between works.  We hope to see you there!


At First Glance
Friday February 27th at 6pm + 7:30pm

Evening of Duets III

After last year's two sold out shows, An Evening of Duets will return for a third year!  Created as a pre-Valentines performance, this event will highlight duets from the romantic to the volatile.  I am thrilled to be a part of this stellar line up of twelve different dance artists from Philadelphia and NYC.  

As for me, I will be performing an improvised duet with Cory Neale on the double bass.  Cory and I have been meeting for weekly improvisation practice for the past two months and are excited to share our work in this intimate setting.  Learn more about Cory below.  

I'd also like to give a special shout out to my friend Daniel Fetecue who will be coming in from NYC on Sunday to perform a passionate and fun duet that he created while in residence at the NADINE Project. 


Cory Neale is a double bassist, composer, and sound designer from Philadelphia, PA. He is resident composer and sound designer for Kun-Yang Lin/Dancers, and also works with a variety of artists across the media spectrum, including the Walnut Street Theater, The Pearlman Sisters, Birds on a Wire Dance Theater, keila cordova dances, and Krista DeNio Productions, among many others. His work includes writing and performing in solo and ensemble settings, sound design for theater, and live accompaniment and music production for choreography, installation, and film. He is a member of the bass section for the Abington Symphony Orchestra.

    "Jennifer Yackel was wary and angular, a graceful warrior."
    -Tresca Weinstein, Times Union 



    "She has a naturalistic, exotic quality.  With her arms spread wide and poised on one leg, she appears as a bird in flight."  ~Wendy Liberatore, Daily Gazette
