MOVEMENT

Move With Me

Through my experience with dance and movement, I have come to understand that when we move with awareness, we are doing more than moving bones and muscles. We are engaging an entire living network within the body.

Creating space means inviting more freedom, ease, and possibility into this inner landscape. It is about exploring how the different systems of the body interact, how tension can soften, and how movement can become more fluid, responsive, and connected.

Creating Space in the Fascia

Fascia is the continuous web of connective tissue that surrounds and connects muscles, bones, nerves, organs, and other structures throughout the body. It plays an important role in how we perceive and experience movement.

Through spirals, gentle stretching, bouncing, and mindful expansion, we explore the body's capacity to release unnecessary tension and allow different layers of tissue to glide. This can support greater mobility, fluidity, and a sense of length and lightness throughout the body.

Creating Space in the Muscles

We often carry tension in our muscles through habitual movement patterns, stress, emotional experiences, and physical overuse.

Creating space in the muscles is not about forcing them to stretch further, but about discovering new possibilities for movement. We explore lengthening without force, softness before strength, and the relationship between effort and ease. By moving with the breath and allowing different muscle groups to share the work, we invite the body to find more balanced and efficient ways of moving.

As unnecessary tension softens, movement can travel more freely through the body, opening up new pathways for coordination, strength, and expression.

Creating Space Around the Organs

Our organs are not static structures. They move and adapt continuously in response to breathing, digestion, circulation, and the movements of the body. They are supported by surrounding connective tissues and interact with the movement of the diaphragm, spine, and rib cage.

Through breath, gentle rotations, spirals, and whole-body movement, we explore greater mobility through the torso and a more nuanced awareness of the body's inner rhythms. As the rib cage and abdomen move with greater ease, breathing can feel more expansive and the body more connected from within.

Dancing to Create Space

Through conscious movement, we explore how to:

  • Encourage the natural mobility and adaptability of the fascia.

  • Lengthen and rebalance muscular effort.

  • Develop greater awareness of the movement of the torso and its internal rhythms.

  • Support breathing, circulation, and relaxation.

  • Regulate the nervous system through breath, rhythm, and mindful movement.

  • Discover new pathways for fluidity, coordination, and expression.

Beyond the Physical Body

Creating space is not only a physical experience. The body and mind are deeply interconnected, and the way we move can influence how we feel, perceive, and relate to ourselves and the world around us.

When we explore new possibilities in the body, we can also cultivate greater openness and flexibility in our minds. Movement becomes a way to listen, to become more present, and to meet our emotions with curiosity rather than resistance.

Through dance, we create space for the body to move, for the mind to soften, and for new possibilities to emerge.

I invite you to explore your personal expression through movement in a supportive space where you can relax, connect with your body, and allow movement to emerge.

In my workshops, I draw from different dance styles and movement practices, including capoeira, Afro-Brazilian dance, contemporary dance, floorwork, house, Gaga, and somatic movement. I also explore body alignment, biomechanics, mobility, and fluidity, with a particular focus on the spine and pelvis.

As a teacher, I aim to help you develop body awareness, fluidity, and confidence in your movement. I invite you to bring your attention back to your body, exploring how you move through space and time in relationship with gravity. By becoming more attuned to your sensations, you can discover not only how you move, but also what moves you.

Through these practices, I hope you will expand your movement vocabulary, develop rhythm and coordination, and, above all, enjoy the experience of moving.

Creating Space Through Dance

Dance and movement are ways for me to express what I experience, to grow, and to keep expanding, both in dance and in life.

I am fascinated by learning directly from my body how to move. From walking to jumping, from rolling to crawling, I am constantly exploring how to move in harmony with the body's structure and the principles of movement.

I am drawn to the state of flow, where movement can be felt in its purest form, where I can surrender to it rather than direct it. I love being moved by life, by rhythm, and by my own body. And I love the feeling that comes after hours of dancing: a deep sense of silence, calm, and expansion.
