This is a story about reclaiming an artful life
I long to call myself an artist again…
I never really left, but somewhere along the way, I stopped being a dancer.
After years of teaching, running a business, and building things for other people, I realised I’d drifted from the kind of practice that once felt like home. Slow Dancer began as a way to reconnect. To come back to something steady, honest, and mine.
I have spent a lifetime training and working in dance.
This year I celebrate a decade of teaching and creating. And I’ve loved it. Every student I supported, the business I built, and all that I’ve learnt. I cherish it.
But somewhere along the way, my own identity as a dancer faded to the background. I knew the mechanics, the focus, the flow… but I had lost the disciplined devotion my own artistry that once lit everything up from the inside.
Only after stepping back, taking a breath and focusing on a world outside of ballet, did I start to remember what it was that kept me in the industry for over 30 years.
I don’t just want to return to dance. I want to be a dancer - an artist.
I want to live my practice. To create, deepen, explore, and expand.
I don’t want to stop teaching, it feels like home. But I do want to refine and focus my work by making space for you.
For adult dancers, artists, and creatives who are craving the embodiment of their own artistry—just as I’m seeking for myself.
This space is for you
This space is for adult dancers, for artists and creatives who crave depth in their practice, in slow, sustainable, beautiful ways.
It’s for the ones who want more than just steps and exercises.
For the ones who never stopped loving it—who just needed a way back in.
Through coaching, storytelling, and ongoing reflection, I’m offering what I once needed most: a space to be seen, to be supported, and to move through dance in a way that feels true.
