DANCING WITH LIFE
I discovered Biodanza in 2001. A
friend invited me to a class and as I
had already been dancing Ceroc and
Salsa regularly and had a go at Belly
Dancing I thought why not? I fell in love
with it straightaway and have been
dancing it ever since. For the first time
I discovered the healing and
transformative power of dance. .It’s
made such a difference to my life that
teaching became an imperative. I
wanted to share it with the world.
I discovered dancing fairly late in life,
having focussed on my career in the
corporate world of the City. A career
change saw me moving into the people
world and I re-qualified as a Chartered
Member of the Institute Of Personnel
and Development and have been
working with people ever since, in one
form or another.
My work was featured on BBC TV
series Breaking Glass, and my last
speaking engagement was in Brussels
for the European Commission.
The training to be a Biodanza facilitator is rigorous and takes many years; my training
has taken place in many cities, Rio de Janeiro, Paris, Amsterdam, Brussels, Nice as well
as London. I have also undertaken training with Rolando Toro, the global founder of the
system. In addition to classes and workshops I have led Biodanza sessions in many
different environments( Summer School, Festival, Bank Holiday 25th Anniversary Fair,
charity fund raising, corporate leadership programmes and even a birthday celebration!)
Key workshops this year (2008) include Mind Body Spirit Festival (London) May 24th and
Biodanza Worlds Congress (Venice) in June.
I live in central London, in my dream home, and I am engaged to be married for the first
time (a biodanza miracle!). The poem on dancing on the Inspiration page is by my
fiancé who says he was inspired into writing after 15 years by my passion for the dance.
Biodanza provides me with the opportunity to do everything I love, dancing, travelling,
transformation, socialising and connecting with people.
