Performing
My thoughts on performing
I love to perform. I love experiencing those moments when I feel so fully and totally involved in what I am doing, when I am nowhere else but here. I love to throw myself into the physicality of movement, and challenging myself to find the extent of each physical possibility. I love the chance to act and react to whatever surprises are thrown my way when I’m performing and finding an in the moment resolution. I’m particularly interested in exploring how far I can push my physicality and researching improvisation, contact improvisation and floorwork. Music moves me and I love any opportunity to perform with musicality. I enjoy the challenges of site-specific work, or work that has an element of audience participation because some of my favourite performances are the ones in which I can see audiences connecting with the work.

EDGE 2019
I performed with EDGE Dance Company 2019 and had the incredible opportunity to tour across the UK and internationally. EDGE performed in Portugal, Finland, and Austria and worked with choreographers Jorge Crecis, Fabio Liberti and Hagit Yakira in a triple bill of diverse and challenging work.
Jorge Crecis | 9 minutes
Created in collaboration with the performers, 9 Minutes presents the final 9 minutes of 9 different characters’ intersecting lives, in a mind-bending, ultimately life-affirming rollercoaster of a work. The work was challenging to perform as it pushed our skillset. It consisted of three 9 minute chapters in which we twitched at 195 bpm, were attached to each other by bright orange bungee chord whilst dancing, and learned to sing in harmony. Each challenge was part of a different chapter.

Hagit Yakira | Sea of Details
Hagit created Sea of Details, a work that reveals hidden details through repetition, opening up a universe of endless possibilities through subtle variations in movement. The work was an intense structured improvisation, and required us as dancers to be intricately tuned in to one another. The work would be different each night, and I enjoyed having the challenge of a structured improvisation that could shift from performance to performance.

Fabio Liberti | Me Myselfie and I
Me, My Selfie and I examined selfie culture and our relationship with social media. The work required us as performers to tune into our theatricality with a large emphasis on use of facial expression and precise movements.
