In 1946, living in San Francisco, he joined the summer session at Colorado College where he met Alwin Nikolais. In 1949, he returned to New York and obtained a degree in drama from the university. Associated with Nikolais, Louis became a partner in the evolution of an ascetic and pedagogical technique that today bears their name: the Nikolais/Louis technique. In 2006, he received the American Dance Festival Award for lifetime achievement.
