About 𝗥𝗔𝗨𝗟 𝗦𝗔𝗟𝗗𝗔𝗥𝗥𝗜𝗔𝗚𝗔

Since childhood, dance has been my way of continuing the game—extending play into adulthood through curiosity, exploration, and creation. I see dance as an adventure into the unknown, where each movement is a chance to discover, to respond, to invent.

One of my deepest joys is the moment a channel opens—when something I propose resonates in a participant and transforms the way they move. That shared understanding is the dance I live for.

My work is rooted in improvisation and performance, and in inhabiting the present fully. I follow images, sensations, and encounters across disciplines, always seeking new paths and languages through the body.
