My dance teaching course at the university level and in the private sector include modern/contemporary dance and somatic practices (QiGong, Pilates and Yoga) and build interdisciplinary bridges to literature (monologue writing and poetry) and the visuals arts and film. I also have an invested interest and passion in intergenerational and intercultural community movement workshops at a variety of institutions and communities.

My distinct contribution to the dance learning environment and in community building is my use of non-hierarchical spaces dialogic spaces, opening up tremendous possibilities for self-knowledge and transference of knowledge. My classes provide time & space for reflections and self-assessment as a habit of mind and its focus on transformative and life-long learning skills, carrying my students' dance learning into the places in which they live, work and breath.

Dialogic Spaces are defined “by openness and a multiplicity of voices—the potential for unbounded contextual meaning” (Wegerif, 2017). Embodied dialogic spaces can overcome language barriers, hierarchical power structures, and dominant perspectives.

Teaching Sample

The choreography was developed with pre-professional dance students and is based on their reflections on their entry points into dance and what made them consider a professional dance education (DanceWorks, Berlin, January 31, 2024. (Start at 00:43 sec)
