Teaching

Dance Education is a big concept which combines a great number of ideas and ways of thinking.  Through my extensive professional teaching and performing career I have come to understand the dancing world in many different ways. The knowledge of many different languages, the exposure to many different cultures, the training in many different techniques and styles of moving has opened my eyes to the many possibilities in my teaching.  I feel I am a teacher that comes with a wide range of styles continously adapting and molding my own.  I live in a state of becoming, always arriving but also leaving.  Teaching dance has given me the profound purpose and reasoning for living.

"Teaching dance is more than  a skill it's an Art"

"To dance is to appropriate and to celebrate one of the most basic and perhaps most personal gifts given to us- the physical body".
