About Me

I am easy-going, friendly. I love adventure, climbing, skiing, and swimming in the cold english sea! anything that gets the adrenaline going. I enjoy meeting new people and sharing. I am a dance artist so I particuarly love to meet people through creative channels of expression that are often non-verbal. Contact Improvisation, Authentic Movement, Yoga and other somatic practices are my passion and lifes research. I also love to use my hands to create things whether with food, charcoal or plaster. I'd really like someday to learn to make adobe to make bigger things. My dream is live in the mountains near a lake with a beautfiul dance studio, to investigate movement expereince and to invite wonderful teachers to also come and share there wisdom. I realise as I re-read this I am on my way, now living in the mountain by a beautiful lake!

I would also like to create performance and interactive art for people and places it would not normally reach, between forests, and unexpected alley ways. Id like to create a circus which morphs and changes inspired by where it goes, integrating different cultures and providing a platform for interaction.

PHILOSOPHY
Follow your heart
Work hard, play hard, relax and let go
