“I see myself as an improviser, I dance to discover, uncover and recover. In the last years my dance gravitated more and more into exploring movement with awareness and this is what I like to share, whether it is in dance improvisation – the art of here and now, working with a partner in the form of contact improvisation, going deep into authentic movement or high and above into ecstatic form of dancing”.
