Definition
A person who creates and arranges the dance moves and sequences for a performance.
Etymology
From Greek 'choreia' (dance) and 'graphia' (writing). The word emerged in the 1800s as ballet became more artistic and choreographers began 'writing' dances like composers write music.
Kelly Says
Choreographers are like composers for bodies—they have to understand music, physics, storytelling, and human movement all at once to create sequences that seem effortless but require months of planning.
