Background: In September 2021, 15 advanced and professional dancers with different dance practise-backgrounds gathered in Berlin for my ‘conFUSION core’ dance intensive. They spent 30 hours in a dance studio labbing with me and got introduced to the core principles and tools of conFUSION concept and experimented in my guidance. The intensive was focused on each individual’s own movement language and their journey as a dancer, mover and performer.

The project was funded by Dachverbandtanz Deutschland and DIS-TANZ-SOLO.
