Rehearsal Direction
"The definition of vulnerability is uncertainty, risk, and emotional exposure.
But vulnerability is not weakness; it's our most accurate measure of courage." - Brene Browne

Integrity Commitment
Passion
My passion is to care for and nurture the choreographers vision. I devote myself to the ways in which I hold space, communicate and support dancers so they feel both empowered and prepared.
I uphold a commitment to balanced individual and collective practices; the melting point where individualism and unification collide.
Structure Liberates
Thoughtful time management is the foundation that supports the freedom of creation and the clarity of rehearsal.
The art of time management is a delicate dance between flow and precision, much like the banks of a river. Honouring the time available to prepare a work for performance involves individual efforts, impeccable communication and collaboration within the team. By leaning into stability, the waters of creativity may rush through effortlessly and with direction.

Devotion
My devotion is to uphold the integrity of a work by supporting the clarity while encouraging a spectrum of specificity from the interpreters. I am passionate about equality, inclusivity and wellness within the containers of rehearsal, study and performance.
