Rachel Helten is a dance artist, choreographer, and teacher currently based on the unceded indigenous land belonging to the Coast Salish peoples, including the territories of the xʷməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), Stó:lō (Stolo), and Səl̓ílwəta/Selilwitulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations. (Vancouver, B.C.). In 2016, she completed her Bachelor of Fine Arts in Dance at Simon Fraser University. Although movement is Rachel's main mode of expression she has an affinity for collaborative and interdisciplinary methods.

Rachel’s work is often charged with a curiosity of how we interact and respond to our real and imagined worlds and how vulnerable states can transform and liberate us. In like manner, Rachel has been blessed to be a part of processes that nurture these fascinations with a vast array of artists in her career as a student and independent artist, some of which are Desir
ée Dunbar, Tara Cheyenne Friedenberg, The Plastic Orchid Factory, Dorotea Saykaly, Vanessa Goodman, Heather Myers, Gioconda Barbuto, Rob Kitsos, Emmalena Fredriksson, Judith Garay and Crystal Pite.

​Her desire to aid in the emancipation and healing of herself and others has intimately transformed her artistic practice and lead her to various corners of the earth. Rachel gleaned insight from teaching dance at an art therapy centre in Quito, Ecuador.
In addition, she has trained in Florence, Italy; Buenos Aires, Argentina and Cascais, Portugal. In her travels, she has found the essence of unity in the souls she met and the spirit of the landscapes she encountered. Rachel desires to honour our histories, frequencies and the poetry of nature through her work.
