Together with Marisa Grande I am developing a traject that will focus on how to integrate instant composition in your daily life. Now, more then ever, we need to dive more deeply into this physical discipline and make it our own.
To dance your life and to live your dance!

For many years I've been working as a dance artist in the field of instant composition and contemporary dance. My starting point is to build from what is present. This can be during a regular class in modern dance technique but also when creating a dance piece on a site specific location.
When creating a dance performance the dance and space will have a symbiotic relation: one can't exist without the other.
Apart of my own organisation and company Dansimprovisatie Utrecht I work as a teacher, performer, choreographer, organiser and coach in dance. Without distinction I work with non-professional dancers, professional (dance) artists and mothers with their babies, to name a few.
To me this is all connected to what dance as an art in life really means: 'being truely in contact with our body in time, space and in relation with others'. Since we all move and improvise in our daily life.
