Movement Director Choreographer Dancer Performer Intimacy Director

An enthusiastic dance artist who trained in movement direction, contemporary dance (linom, release, flying low, acrobatic) & ballet, loves creating stories through movement & dance. The work comes from a fresh female, European perspective embracing every collaboration and project. Important to listen, to adapt, to inspire and to be inspired from the others. It's a constant offering of excitement for the physical creating authentic work, bold and captivating.

Interested in new contemporary dynamic work; the world changes rapidly around us, discovering new technologies/media, questioning the universal, the human, new interpretations of classical plays, contemporary -relevant
& anything related to Greek! (She/her)
