Teacher modern, adults and children
My love for dance has always been there and forms a common thread through my life!
As a four-year-old girl, I saw Swan Lake on TV and I knew I wanted to dance. The years that were filled with lots of dancing fun and I was trained at the Royal Academy of Dancing and taught at a ballet school in classical, modern and jazz styles.
Years later I went to study at the Amsterdam School of the Arts for theater maker and theater teacher and I have been working in the exciting for over twenty years theater profession and have numerous dance & theater performances, in both the amateur and the professional circuit, made. I also take care of the dramaturgy of performances and I stand sometimes even on stage.
I am convinced that it is never too late to follow your heart and chase your dreams and that's what I've been doing for the past few years! I like to keep learning and on my own for example, I obtained my position as a Modern dance teacher via Dansbelang and I will soon complete the training to Laban Bartenieff Movement Analyst, with which I share my vision and development on movement and dance. I regularly travel abroad to take lessons from internationally renowned choreographers and dancers from, among others, the Dance theater company Pina Bausch.
I teach with great pleasure and passion to every age and everyone who wants to dance!
In my lessons I pay extra attention to the dance experience, the expression of the dance. By means of my background in both theater and dance, I think that's a very nice combination. Physically awareness, knowing how to get the most out of your dance in a healthy way and the beauty of the precision of a movement are important points of interest for me.
Of course the pleasure of dancing and everyone's personal dance development are central and I think it is very inspiring to stimulate and increase your talent.
