Dance in
With a passion for developing dance in education settings Helga facilitates dance experiences in primary and secondary schools ranging from once off workshops to themed class programmes and performance projects.
Since her studies in Social Work with a focus on Music and Movement in 2008, Helga has facilitated creative dance and music classes in primary schools including an extensive one year programme at 'Bischof-Manfred-Mueller Schule' in Regensburg and a cross-disciplinary performance project fusing movement, music and visual art inspired by the story 'Where the wild things are' by Maurice Sendak at 'Grundschule Reut' in Germany.
Since relocating to Ireland Helga has worked on the Arts in Education Initiative / Teacher Artist Partnership Programme (The Department of Education and Skills and the Department of Arts, Heritage and the Gaeltacht) with Cork Education Support Centre, holding residencies at Gaelscoil Na Douglaise (2016) and Bunscoil Chriost Ri (2019) as well as facilitating summer courses for teachers and artists.
Further, Helga developed a dance outreach programme for primary schools on 'geometry in movement' (2017) and 'the history of Skibbereen and the Ilen River' (2018) as part of her post as Dance Artist in Residence at Uillinn: West Cork Arts Centre which she delivered in participating schools in the West Cork area.
