Martin Keogh is the founder of The Dancing Ground, an organisation that produces conferences and symposia on gender, race, and mythology. He has taught and performed contact improvisation dance in thirty-two countries on five continents. For his contribution to the development of this dance form he is a Fulbright Senior Specialist and listed in Who's Who in the World.
Martin spent time travelling to monasteries in Japan and Korea and was the director of the Empty Gate Zen Center in Berkeley before discovering the world of dance. He has co-facilitated Teacher's Conferences on five continents, is the author of "The Art of Waiting", "As Much Time as it Takes" and the recently released anthology: "Hope Beneath Our Feet: Restoring Our Place in the Natural World".
Martin now rarely tours as he concentrates on his writing. He currently lives in San Miguel, Mexico where he is on the board of directors of El Charco del Ingenio. The Dalai Lama recently designated this conservation area a “Zone of Peace.”
