My love is found both in dance and in meditation. I see how they beautifully complement and deepen each other. When I was twenty, I first encountered a different way of dancing through Osho. I could experience what it was like to be completely immersed. Later, in 1990, I danced the Five Rhythms for the first time with Gabrielle Roth. The healing power of dance gave me insight into how energy works. In the following years, I devoted myself fully to it. I completed the teacher training and later also the Heartbeat advanced training. In Heartbeat, we dance to experience the pure energy of emotions, allowing frozen energy to flow freely again. I was trained as a dance teacher by Gabrielle Roth, Ya’Acov & Susannah Darling-Khan, and Andrea Juan.

Since 1998, I have been teaching both nationally and internationally. In addition to the Five Rhythms, I have participated in various workshops and trainings in meditation, body-oriented therapy, and tantra. Since 2008, I have been connected with Naropa, who trained me to lead breath meditations. Additionally, since 2012, I have regularly attended Vipassana retreats. Vipassana with Naropa provides a structure in which you are in silence, without distractions—a deep, direct, and honest encounter with yourself.

Over the years, the combination of dance and meditation has developed into a unique teaching style, which now comes together in Move in Essence. In my work, I joyfully bring these two forms together.
