The narrative, the journey, the character, the dynamics, the feeling - like a person stepping into a finely tailored suit, how you embody that and strut down the street in it, that’s down to you. I love bringing that magic to life in the people I work with.
Through my own experiences navigating the professional dance world, I empowered myself to challenge the parameters that existed and to carve out my identity. I believe in creating possibilities for people to explore their authenticity through artistry.
Movement is such a powerful medium that it transcends the need for language. I work by combining years of study in my craft with pure instinct to bring about the most exciting and appropriate solution to any creative challenge.
For me there is nothing better than helping an idea come to life and that feeling of pure satisfaction at the end of a job well done.
There’s nothing more to it... let’s join forces in making something great.
