Teaching
The courses and workshops offer training in performance, language as a political tool and construct, and theoretical perspectives on how performance intersects with the politics of migration, majority/minority relations, issues of language and expression, the making of place, and the right to the public sphere.
The teaching practice extends across a wide range of contexts - from universities and art academies to dance companies, independent studios, and international festivals. Programs take the form of semester-long courses, intensive residencies, and short-term laboratories, exploring the intersection of movement, voice, and text as a means of creative and political inquiry.
Among the institutions that have hosted these programs are Brandeis University, Tufts University, Tallinn University, the Salzburg Summer Academy of Fine Arts, and Hebrew College, among others.
Developing language(s) of performance: speech, voice, body.
This course will offer a channel for developing a performance language specific to each performer and exploring each subject’s relationship to their language, vocal production, and movement. Students will examine repositories of language memory in their bodies as propulsive engines for their bodies and performance languages. Attention will be dedicated to spoken language's creative and destructive potential by exploring various expressive practices and techniques, including martial arts, improvisational techniques, modern dance, free-styling, and beatboxing.
Mixed Martial Arts for Performers:
The course explores interconnections of martial arts and performance through comprehensive training in three traditions: Wing-Tsun Kung Fu, BJJ, and Muay Thai. Through training, readings, videos, reflections, group discussions, and written assignments, the course emphasizes self-expression, critical engagement, dialogue, and individual movement vocabulary.
It encourages a creative approach to integrating elements from traditional movement techniques to develop creative agency and a personal creative voice.
Yoga Teaching
My teaching grows out of a lifelong dedication to movement. As a dancer and choreographer, I approach yoga as a living practice of flow, awareness, and transformation. I see the yoga class as a space for self-exploration — a chance to listen to breath, body, and sensation, and to cultivate presence in the here and now. Through vinyasa sequences guided by rhythm and alignment, students are invited to discover balance, inner freedom, and a deeper connection to themselves.
