"Movement gave me a presence, gave me back ownership of my body, it provides me with tools for healing and a path of creation.
You could say it saved me. When I developed the tool of listening to my body I began to recognize the language it was talking to me . The physical manifestation of emotional and voluntary forces in my own being took place and turned from "excess" energy to experiential and creative energy.
I am very interested in my life to convey what I discovered about movement to other people and especially with other people. I believe in a shared creation.
Teaching and learning, which is the same from two different directions, is, in my opinion, one of the most important and meaningful joint works in life.
I try to remain open, to draw inspiration and to understand movement through every experience of life, through the action of cleaning the house or by taking a broad view of my life's scenarios.
I believe in learning through experiential experience and personal guidance. In my opinion, we develop through a meeting and when someone sees us, it is easy for us to see ourselves and when we see ourselves, it is already a step towards transformation.
In my estimation, everyone can experience movement as a joint dance and if that happened then it would be even better for all of us in this world. "
