I am a dancer, trapeze-dancer, dance and trapeze teacher - mostly based on Laban/Bartenieff material - and have a Master's Degree in Education.


Since 1994 I am performing in Germany and other countries with different interdisciplinary ensembles with mutual dialogue between dance, music and space, for example the Slices-Ensemble, the Airborn Dancers, the PERFORMANCE BÜHNE BERLIN

and the GLOBAL WATER DANCES BERLIN. 


 

My special interest is the intensive and sensitive dialogue with live music, especially with new and improvised music, and with extraordinary performance spaces like a water reservoir, an old public bath, parks and harbors.

 

I am a passionate teacher for dance, bodywork and performance for over twenty years. My teaching focuses on strengthening the personal

expressivity of the dancer and mover in technique or improvisation classes and connecting bodywork with dance as well as bodywork and coaching on a very deep level. The coaching can be a choreographic one, where I help artists to clarify and intensify their artistic expression in their work - or it can be in the field of management, together with the Business Coach Caroline Meder.

 

I am teaching also in the EUROLAB CERTIFICATE PROGRAMS IN LABAN/BARTENIEFF MOVEMENT STUDIES, the DANCE THERAPY EDUCATION PROGRAM AT NEURAUM BERLIN, the DANCE INTENSIVE PROGRAM OF TANZFABRIK BERLIN, a private school for education and at TUT - THE SCHOOL FOR DANCE, CLOWNING AND THEATRE (HANNOVER).
