CHOREOGRAPHY
Inspired by narrative and character, I love all types of movement based performance that are of high quality, eclectic and striking.
Having studied a range of dance genres worldwide, I work hard to create unexpected movement pieces with originality and quirk.
I make dance and movement for performers of all abilities, often dramatising 'everyday movement' with intricate steps to produce work that audiences delight in, ‘normal things done extremely well’.
I work hard to bring creative pieces to the rehearsal room and patiently polish them, giving my choreography its distinctive intensity and consistent high quality.
