More About Me
Interests: Improvised Partner Dance, Flow Arts, Contact Improv, Performance Dance, Experimental Dance
Goals: I would like to explore improvised partner dance of any form (Argentine Tango, contact improv, etc) with a dedicated and open-minded dance partner who shares my enthusiasm for good music and experimentation.
Training:
I have training in belly dance, ballet, tap, production line dancing, pole dancing, burlesque and Butoh. I have had some training in Argentine Tango and I would like to learn more. I LOVE the freedom of Ecstatic Dance and I attend on a weekly basis. I also have extensive martial arts training, which can occasionally influence how I move. :)
Experience:
I've been dancing since I came out of the womb and I have decades of formal and informal experience.
I have choreographed dance for the stage and I have taught intermediate and advanced tap dance to students (ages 11 to 70). My experience reflects how much I enjoy performance. I am an award winning burlesque dancer and I occasionally perform in the DMV. I am a member of 2 short form improv groups (not exactly dance, but it integrates a lot of what I do best in dance: comedy/physicality/performance.)
I'm Looking For
I am seeking a partner with the following qualities/abilities:
- Can commit to a weekly practice, preferably 2 hours per week in the DC/DMV area.
- Playful, open-minded spirit
- Has interest and ability in improvised dance of any form (Argentine Tango, etc.)
- If you are interested in performance of any kind, that would be a major plus!
