About

Personal Description:

As a dance artist and teacher, I am interested in bringing together different forms – uniting dance styles choreographically, or juxtaposing dance forms with unexpected musical scores or themes. I am also interested in the social and therapeutic aspects of dance work, particularly with children, and in the physical and psychological benefits of working expressively and creatively. I still perform regularly, and have recently appeared in works by Tom Roden, Jiska Morgenthal and Katherine Fry.
