Was on the faculty of the European Dance Development Center (EDDC), Arnhem (1990-2002). Has an MFA degree (Dance Research Fellow) from Bennington College, VT, USA. Both her performing and teaching are informed by dance improvisation (Release Technique and Contact Improvisation) and mindful body practices including Ideokinesis, Taiji/Qigong and the Alexander Technique (ACAT certified teacher), forms which engender trust in the body’s innate capacity for ease, efficiency and integrated openness, that stimulate its infinite potential for movement. and that activate the imagination. The New York Judson dance revolution of the 1960’s and 70’s has been profoundly influential, giving her current dance practice a passion for creative process and experimentation.
- Slower than Slow
5 days workshop with Eva Karczag
In this workshop expect to take time. To sense the places and spaces that we’ll discover and enter, we will slow down to slower than slow. Between and within the fabric of our tissues, organs, bones and all that we’re made of, the precise detail that emerges when we slow down reveals infinite potential for movement. When space has opened, and energy is streaming, we will move with speed and freedom to bring to light and give voice to the dances that live within us.
We are happy to welcome you!
