As long as I can remember, I've been fascinated why humans move physically and are moved emotionally.
As a child, movement was my biggest outlet and form of expression. I spent countless hours playing outdoors, dancing in my living room, and struggling to sit still in school, like many children.
From the of age 13 to 23, I trained intensively to become a contemporary dancer.
After earning my Bachelor’s degree in contemporary dance, I realized I had been ignoring my body’s craving for different kinds of movement, rooted in exploration, play and being outdoors.
I started taking more walks outside and felt a sense of hunger to connect more deeply to what makes us human.
The past years I have been learning from peers, students as well as inspirational people like; Nutrious Movement (Katy Bowman), Evolve Move Play (Ben Medder), WildStrong (Andrew Telfer & Gil Erskine), NatuurlijkSportief and GroenGoed.
Currently, I'm passionate about facilitating self-directed experiences through outdoor play and creative tasks that empower and build confidence in the individual and group.
