DANCE

I am a professional dancer, choreographer and dance teacher from Germany. I received my training at Iwanson International School of Contemporary Dance (Munich), Peridance Capezio Center (New York) and graduated from Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance (London) with both an MA in Choreography and MSc in Dance Science. In 2021 I was also awarded the fellowship with the Higher Education Academy.

Companies and choreographers I have worked with include Joe Alegado (former dancer for Alvin Ailey II and Josè Limón) who I also assisted in his Workshops, Sean Feldman (former dancer for Janet Smith and Rambert), Awake Dance Company and NotetoSELF Dance (choreographic assistant and dancer). I have performed for internationally recognised festivals such as Resolution (The Place, London) and Move It! (ExCel, London) and my choreographic works span from collaborations with artists and musicians at London galleries and events to theatre and festival performances in Germany and the UK.

My teaching credits include being a Component Leader and Lecturer for Contemporary Jazz at Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance in London, delivering classes and Workshops at the University of Tübingen and teaching at Pineapple Dance Studios and Dance Attic in London. Alongside my creative and pedagogical work, I have also contributed to scientific studies and science communication projects at the intersection of Cognitive Psychology and the Performing Arts and I currently pursue my PhD bridging Cognitive Neuroscience and Movement Science at University College London.

Contemporary Jazz

I established my Workshop-series Contemporary Jazz in 2012 and I now teach it across venues in Germany and London. My fluid, acrobatic and dynamic style has been influenced by my training with Joe Alegado and teachers at Peridance Capezio Center (New York) and Iwanson International (Munich).
Expect an afternoon exploring Jazz technique combined with the fluidity of Contemporary Dance, an introduction to acrobatic elements, work on musicality and dynamic variation and space and time to express yourself through the choreography in the second part of the Workshop.

Inversions & Contemporary Acrobatics

A playful movement workshop giving you a chance to learn to be more comfortable in being on your hands and upside down. The workshop will help you build the strength and technique in working towards handstands and other arm balances used in Yoga and Contemporary Acrobatics.
This is for you if you are a dancer, a gymnast, a yogi or simply if you are curious about movement and what your body can do.

Ballet and Contemporary Dance Technique Classes

I hold regular classes in Classical Ballet, Contemporary Ballet, Modern Dance, Contemporary Dance, and Contemporary Jazz. These classes are accessible to all levels and help students establish a good technique and musicality. For more detailed information, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
