I've been travelling the world and connecting with people through dance in the last two decades. I've been teaching in different dance schools with people from various backgrounds which gave me valuable educational experience. I've been working with both professionals and nonprofessionals, which has given me an understanding of the educational differences in dance training on both a physical and mental level.
I had the privilege to spend 5 years at the Hungarian Dance University and deepen my knowledge of the modern and contemporary dance techniques - but finding my unique voice I needed to invest a lot more beside the Academy.
My teaching philosophy and methods are rooted in my 4 academic studies (with 3 degrees) and all of the international workshops and intensives that I have attended in the last 20 years.
I’ve studied sociology and have a BA degree in Croatian language and literature as well as a BA modern dancer diploma and the Master’s Degree.
For me just to dance was never enough. I always wanted to dig deep into why? How? What if? Besides attending the Dance University, I also travelled Europe to learn from the best.
My dance classes / sessions / choreographic processes should become a safe place: to grow as a dancer and not only just a dancer. To become more resilient, be able to change your mindset quickly, dare to be goofy, find the bravery inside yourself.
