DANCE ARTISTS
Adam Koan

Adam Koan is a Butoh practitioner and performance artist with a history of classical dance. He is based in Florida, USA, but for the majority of the time resides in Europe or Asia. Since 2016, he has toured extensively across the USA, Europe, Mexico, and India, performing and facilitating Butoh workshops and intensives. Over the course of his journey, Adam has studied under 43 international Butoh and Butoh-related guides, shaping his unique approach to his Butoh.

Currently, Adam’s work is fully dedicated to Theokinesis—a pedagogy, dance, and performance art project he launched in November 2023 heavily drawing upon scripture. Theokinesis is a dance ministry that uses Butoh as a medium to point to God.

The goal of the network is to find creative dance practitioners of various dance styles who also use the Word to engage in ministry. The goal is to find as many of these practitioners throughout the world so there can be connections between us. I will use the resources I already have within the dance and Butoh world to connect potential Jesus followers into one place.
