Dorinda Holler (dancer) grew up in Northern California where, after being told she was too short to be a ballerina, quickly found her way to modern dance. Since then she has performed with dance companies and choreographers in a variety of cities including San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Boston. Along the way she received a MA in Dance Therapy from UCLA and a MS in Occupational Therapy from Tufts University. Since moving to Portland, Dorinda has performed with Randee Paufve, Jae Diego, Gregg Bielemeier, and of course, as a "spugger" with Sinead Kimbrell.
