Class desciption:
I teach what I embody as dancer and performer. I teach what I know most about, what I learned and still passionately study. This series of 90 min classes will use some tools from contact improvisation, group and solo improvisation to feed your dance skills and dancing appetite and the use of your full movement potential. See you on the dance floor!

These classes are made possible at Danscentrum Väst, due to a VARIA2018 collaboration.
