Hello curious dancer!

After almost 15 years of travelling to teach dance all over Europe and beyond, I'm very excited to be offering dance workshops in my hometown of Heidelberg! I'm looking forward to sharing my love and excitement for these beautiful Black American dances with both new and more experienced dancers.

Classic Steps & Variations (Solo Jazz)

In this class, we’ll cover a range of less common classic jazz steps and grooves, paired with body awareness and technique to support healthy movement. We’ll then explore variations to help us express ourselves more fully - fostering creativity on the dance floor while keeping movement fresh and personal. In short, this blend of fundamentals, exploration, and expression aims to nurture one of the core qualities of African American dance forms: artful, musical improvisation.

Blues Grooves Sampler (Solo Blues)

In this class, we’ll learn how to make the music visible through our movement and change up our dancing with every new musical vibe: Whether it’s a late night slow blues jam, a fierce New Orleans song with attitude and sass, or a fast Jump Blues number: we’ll go into what makes the music distinguishable, we'll discover ideas that allow each individual's solo voice to develop, and we'll also get a better grip on what constitutes this eclectic genre of music called the Blues!
