Tristan Ching Hartmann Tristan Ching Hartmann has been living, dancing, and learning in the Bay Area since 1991. After receiving her early training at the Westside School of Ballet and the San
Francisco Ballet School, she began studying modern dance with Diane Frank and Robert Moses at Stanford University where she received her B.A. in English and her M.A. in Education. She is grateful to have danced with Robert Moses’ Kin for 11 years before retiring from the company to pursue a range of performance experiences, including work with the 2009 BRIT Awards, Tango Fatale, RAWdance, Project B, and Sharp and Fine. Tristan was on faculty at the San Francisco Conservatory of Dance -- teaching technique classes, leading creative writing sessions, and making work -- until the school’s closing in 2018. Tristan continues to present work, often collaborating with the fabulous writers of Red Light Lit as well as her dance heroes/friends. Tristan currently dances with the Margaret Jenkins Dance Company and is moved by the generous opportunities she has been given to explore how an aging body experiences dance, art, life, and love. Tristan would like to thank her family and communities for their relentless love and support.
