bio

Being a musician by trade I got to know Contact Improvisation during my studies at ArtEZ, Arnhem (NL) as I started composing music for dance performances. I fell in love with the form and study continuously since about eight years by now.

 

At the conservatory I also learned about the Alexander Technique and took private lessons from Eva Karczag. Pretty soon I understood that I wanted to attend the teachers training program and moved to Berlin.

 

My experience of the moving body and teaching are strongly influenced by the Alexander Technique, Klein Technique and BMC® and by working intensively with such wonderful teachers like Dan Armon, Eva Karczag, Jörg Hassmann, Hanna Hegenscheidt, the Moveus team Friederike Tröscher and Jens Johannsen.

 

In September 2013 I received my diploma from the School For The Alexander Technique of Dan Armon, Berlin.

 

I am following the Somatic Movement Education Program (BMC®) from Moveus since September 2013.

 

I teach CI mostly in Berlin at the Somatische Akademie and I curate and organize the Moving Body events in Berlin.

 

Since 2011 I coordinate the annual intensive of the School For The Alexander Technique, Berlin and in November 2016 for the first time the Alexander-Technique Festival! 

 

My work as a freelancing tour manager and producer for dancers, workshop-formats and organizations include engagements with Sasha Waltz & Guests, Martin Nachbar, The Shakespeare Company Berlin, Joerg Hassmann, Hanna Hegenscheidt and Dan Armon among others.
