Simran Sachar

Simran Sachar

Simran Sachar is a choreographer, dance artist, director, teacher, writer, and actor currently dedicating time to their artistic practice on the unceded, ancestral territories of the Musqueam, Squamish, and Tsleil-Waututh Nations. 

She is a captivating anomaly in this industry known for her work as a contemporary and street dance artist and choreographer. As a performer she’s contributed her skills in various film, television, theatre productions, and Canadian dance companies, as well as the street dance scene where she’s known for her exceptional abilities as a freestyle dancer, strong storytelling skills and fluid precision. As a choreographer, Sachar’s work uncovers functions inside wh/aacking, distorted memories and how they disfigure us, and the duality of relief and grief.

Most recently, Sachar co-choreographed with Justine A. Chambers on a newly commissioned dance work which premiered on July 5th, 2025 at Indian Summer Festival to a sold out audience. Sachar’s work, ‘ACT TWENTY FIVE’ premiered in June 2024 at Dancing On The Edge Festival and at Dance In Vancouver. Her latest XR film “The Edge of The Underworld,”premiered in September 2024. Her first XR film, BETA बेटा was presented at Luna Arts Festival 2021. In 2020, her first film ‘LUNACY’ was a part of National Arts Centre's CAPSULE and premiered at F.O.R.M Film Festival and won the Official Selection of the Audience Choice Award.

FORM

FORM is based in so-called Vancouver, in what is colonially known as Canada, on the unceded and stolen traditional territories of the xʷməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), and Səl̓ílwətaʔ/Selilwitulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations. FORM continues to reflect on and bring attention to connection to bodies, land and movement through filmmaking, documentation and storytelling. We are grateful to share and witness these stories together while inspiring movement towards positive change, wherever you may be.
