 Lynn Simonson is an internationally respected educator of jazz dance. She is the creator of Simonson Technique, an organic approach to movement that prepares the body to dance in a way that is anatomically intelligent and somatically aware. Her call to jazz dance grew out of a deep love of jazz music and a need to express that music in movement. Simonson received early strong classical ballet training from Mr. and Mrs. Ladre in Seattle, Washington, and later from the American Ballet Theater School in New York City. She studied modern dance with Jimmy Truite, and jazz dance with such notables as Jaime Rogers, Claude Thompson, and Luigi.

In 1984, Simonson and Simonson Technique teachers, Laurie De Vito, Michael Geiger, Danny Pepitone, and Charles Wright, created and co-founded Dance Space, now known as Dance New Amsterdam. Simonson Technique, which is progressed on four levels, continues to be housed there, and, is currently taught by certified teachers in more than 20 countries worldwide. Her teacher training course fulfills her mission of developing skilled and articulate dance educators. Dance New Amsterdam offers certification programs in the Simonson Method of Teacher Training.
