Skills
Choreographer, movement director, movement theatre deviser. I teach actor-movement systems of training drawing on the psychophysical, embodied approaches of Rudolf Laban, Michael Chekhov, Vanessa Ewan, and Anne Bogart & Tina Landau.. I also teach contemporary dance, contact work, trust work, movement improvisation and self expression, inhabiting the body and presence in performance, and authentic movement.
Your instruction, your mentorship and your friendship will stay in my pocket. The energy and love you bring to everything you do invigorated and sustained all the D’s throughout the year. Thank you. Your generosity of spirit is such a gift.
