This dance changed everything.

Back in 2007, when I stumbled into a workshop, I fell head over heels.
Contact Improvisation didn’t just touch me, it took me.
I let go of everything else that was my path and ambition: my Music career and University pursuits as well as my beloved new Acro Yoga practice and I dove right in with my whole being. Nothing else had pulled me in like this ever before.

What began as a dance, became a devotion.
Everything I offer now is woven from the threads of training, experience, and the wild becoming that unfolded through my CI practice.

I spent the next 15 years mostly barefoot, in motion - attending workshops and festivals, studying Dance Improvisation and Performance, eventually teaching, hosting jams, and co-creating spaces where this practice could live and evolve.

Originally developed in the 1970s by dancers Steve Paxton and then also Nancy Stark Smith, CI explores movement through shared weight, momentum, and deep listening between bodies. It’s a form without fixed form - playful, unpredictable, and rich with research, exploration and learning.
Though my work now centers around sound, somatic coaching and ceremony, Contact lives underneath it all. It changed everything when I found it - or when it found me:
A wild, wordless world of presence, trust, and transformation. Of floor love, reconnection power and embodied non-hierachy and open source.
I shed my seriousness, softened through touch and movement,
and began to play with life again.

To this day, it remains one of my greatest teachers: where I learned to listen with my skin, speak through weight and gravity, and navigate the dance of distance and closeness.
It has profoundly shaped how I move, how I create, how I hold space, and how I do life.

I may teach and dance less often now, but it’s in my bones.
And I return to it like you return to a place that made you who you are.
