As a physical actor, i´m in a constant process. When working with people, I always learn new aspects of life. This allows me to play and teach in different countries and situations: in a refugee camp in Iraq, on the largest avocado festival in Latin America, in a school in Berlin which was supposed to be closed - all these moments were challenges and opportunities to understand life in new perspective.
I studied pantomime, mime and clown and I am educated as a pedagogue with a focus on theater, circus and music education.
Unterricht
Adults
My workshops are divided into two main areas :
- The physical part in which movement analysis is taught to the actor. I work with approaches of Grotowski, Mime Blanche from Marcel Marceau, Mime Corporeal Dramatique from Etienne Decroux and Body Weather.
- Improvisation is the other fundamental element of my work. So I set the focus on impulsivity, imagination and authenticity.
Unterricht
Children & Youth
I´m teaching the basics of theater and circus, the pedagogical work focuses on the following points :
- Physical expression ability and skills
- Self-confidence and courage to activity
- Social behavior in the group
- Communication
At the end of the workshop little scenes can be developed. As a coach and director, I realised several youth theater and circus projects.
