Rachel Torres

Rachel Torres is a current dance artist in residence through the Emergency Artists Residency at Arts District Liberty Station. During her 11-month residency, Rachel is excited to have a dedicated space and time to create work and focus on her artistic voice and vision. Her work explores themes of identity and authenticity, pulling from personal experiences, collaboration with dancers, and research around the idea of our "authentic self." Rachel will be working on choreography during her residency and plans to host workshops and events that coincide with her research and choreographic process. She is also looking forward to the possibilities for collaboration with her cohort and tenants within Arts District.

Rachel has been a part of the San Diego dance community for many years. She has trained at Liberty Station with Malashock Dance and San Diego Dance Theater, and has performed works by several local choreographers including John Malashock, Jean Isaacs, Debi Toth, Sadie Weinberg, Lara Segura, Erica Buechner, Brianna Pilkinton, and Lavina Rich. Rachel has performed as a guest artist with San Diego Dance Theater and was a company dancer with the Malashock Dance Company from 2016-2020. She currently teaches youth and adult contemporary modern classes at Malashock Dance.
