Dance education since 2017

I am a trained dance educator with a focus on contemporary dance and improvisation. My classes are open to professional dancers and hobby dancers alike.

My teaching draws on Art/Life Process with Anna and Daria Halprin (Tamalpa Institute, USA), Body-Mind Centering (Somatic Academy Berlin), release technique and improvisation with Judith Sánchez Ruiz, and the further training Choreographie Heute at Theater Werkstatt Heidelberg. I teach indoors and outdoors, nationally and internationally. For one-on-one coaching or workshop requests, get in touch.
