Teaching

I invite people of all ages to discover the joy of creating their own movements. In my workshops and classes—whether with children, seniors, or people with disabilities—we explore improvisation, body awareness, and choreography in a playful and open way. Everyone is welcome to move, experiment, and express themselves.

traces

On the weekend of May 23 and 24, we would like to invite you to a workshop around the theme of traces.

Traces can be found everywhere – in nature, in movement, and in memory. During these two days we will explore together what traces are, how they emerge, and what they can reveal or carry with them. Our starting point will be dance: How does movement leave a trace in space, in the body, or in perception? What remains from a movement once it has passed?

The workshop is conceived as a shared space for exploration – curious, open, and experimental. We will dance, observe, follow movements, and sense the traces they leave, while also taking time to exchange and reflect together.

📅 Saturday & Sunday, May 23–24
⏰ 10:00 – 16:00
📍 Cologne

We are very much looking forward to discovering and exploring traces together with you – and perhaps leaving some new ones behind.

Met zachte Verwondering

Dans met mensen met geheugenproblematiek

en hun mantelzorgers

Het was een hele fijne eerste workshop vandaag in het museum IJsselstein bij 'Met zachte Verwondering'.

LeahJacob en ik noemen onze workshop 'Dans in het hier en nu' en het was heel fijn om samen met mensen met of zonder geheugenverlies met beweging, ritme, stilte en humor te spelen. Voor een tentoongestelde muurgrote schilderei samen te dansen, het over de schilderij te hebben en verder te dansen was erg leuk! Leah en ik hebben ook een korte Performance laten zien: fijn onderzoek hoe je contact maakt met de mensen die kijken.

Dankjwel aan TamaarTothVarju en BobDeNigtere voor de uitnodiging en de warme sfeer.

Nightfall

Playing with awareness, movement and

performance during sunset.

We are staying in a public space for around two hours and we explore by playing:

How do we sense space and how do we move in it? What influence does the change in light have on our body, the group and the space around us? Which spaces are created or disappear by the light?

Home - Far away so close

Feeling at home in a movement. How would you move? This is basically the question we explore and play with during this weekend workshop. And how we can share this with other people.
We have time to delve into our awareness of our body, play with different movement qualities and improvisation invitations. Finding our own way of moving.

We work with exercises from Instant Composition, somatics like Body-Mind Centering and Authentic Movement.

To play, press and hold the enter key. To stop, release the enter key.

Hop, Skip & Jump
Creative Dance with school kids

We explored different ways of jumping, how to twist in mid-air and enjoyed our strength and the air in our face. :)
So much fun with the shadows, our Doppelgänger!

Dansen in het Moment

Leah en ik werden van Puls in IJsselstein uitgenodigd om met mantelzorgers te dansen en we hadden het over de vraag 'wanneer voel je je thuis?'. Aansluitend hebben we fijn geluncht en verder uitgewisseld.
