"My vision is to create a safe environment in which people can develop as dancers based on their identity and norms and values."

Modern dance

In my teenage years I developed a love for modern dance. In my modern dance classes I look for the balance between combinations with a lot of energy and pace and slower combinations full of immersion, and a balance between standing elements and floorwork. Collaboration is a recurring part of my lessons. This creates more skills in partnering, more knowledge about yourself and creates an environment where you can learn with and from each other. For me, Modern Dance is a dance style where emotions can flow in connection with creativity, expression and technique.

"A dance step is only really created when the dancer gives it meaning.’’

Jazz

Since childhood I have had a love for Jazz. The combination between staccato and legato, the cheerful character and the precision always appealed to me. This love has only grown over the years. Nowadays I am very skilled as a jazz teacher and I immerse myself in this style while attending jazz intensives and workshops. I have a lot of affinity with show jazz, musical jazz, old school jazz and academic jazz.

"Jazz makes me feel like the stars of the doek fonkel and I can be myself in this.’’

"I want to help the next generation through dance education add it to your school system.’’

Primary and Secondary Education

I have a great affinity with giving dance lessons in primary and Secondary Education. I find the creativity and playfulness of children very fun and inspiring. And I believe that these creative qualities and skills need to be developed, and school institutions are a perfect place for this. This not only contributes to their creative thinking but also helps their teamwork, their mental health and their emotional development.

"Dance education can play a crucial role in recovery the mental health of the traumatized children.’’

Refugees-children

From an early age, I attach great importance to taking care of my fellow man. my involvement with refugee children arose during my studies as a dance teacher. In my bachelor thesis I investigated how dance can promote the mental health of refugee children. The results of this research have led to the development of a teaching method that I now use in, among other things, asylum seeker centers and international switching classes.
