Life is Movement
In my work, I explore embodiment as an integral and complex aspect of experience and identity. My aim is to support people in finding orientation within themselves, enabling them to make clearer, more self-directed decisions.
I understand embodiment as embedded in social, cultural, and ecological contexts, as well as in memory, emotion, language, and creativity. For me, the body and identity cannot be understood in isolation from these processes.
I draw on embodied narratives from a range of sources (see the "About Me" section), all of which are grounded in my own practice and experience. Through these perspectives, I share anatomical knowledge and meaningful connections that can be explored, understood, and felt within one's own body.
Because every person is unique while also sharing common ground with others, verbal exchange about what is experienced and sensed plays an important role. I do not see myself as an expert with privileged knowledge, but as a companion in a shared learning process, in which each person's experiential world is enriched through shared experiences.
I am interested both in the causes and functions of movement patterns or physical discomfort and in personal understandings of health and performance. By starting from what already feels stable and functional, new possibilities and alternatives can emerge and gradually be integrated.
I accompany you in exploring the diversity of your embodied possibilities and entering into a living dialogue with the different aspects of your being. In this sense, I understand my work as supporting processes of emancipation.
Movement & Solidarity
Somatic experience offers ways of being in solidarity with all parts of oneself. Within this solidarity lies the experience of dependence as a form of connection. We are each, in ourselves, already a multiplicity, and we can only become ourselves in relation with others. I hope that my work reflects this understanding and creates opportunities for participation in community.
The sliding-scale pricing for my workshops is intended to encourage those with greater financial flexibility to make participation possible for others. In addition, I always reserve solidarity places, which can be requested directly by contacting me.
I also seek ways to offer my work in financially accessible contexts—for example through adult education centres, community centres, activist spaces, and similar initiatives. If you are part of such a space or group, I would be happy to hear from you.
