Dance for me is the most intelligent language to connect with other human beings without words. The human body always excites me because of its power to understand and interpret feelings, external and internal situations in a very quick and special way. Finally, the brain isn’t able to lead but only follow. From my perspective, that is exactly the importance of the “body-minded” research. How can we react to the unpredictable and irreversible present? How can the inner child and the deep honesty of ourselves or even the instincts move us? Interacting and improvising are not only a kind of art for me, but also a field that I am constantly exploring. I risk in order to get to know myself and to find a space that I can embrace my personal doubts, fights and questions.
