​SOCIALLY ENGAGED DANCE

Socially engaged dance forms an integral part of Helga's artistic practice. Fuelled by the believe that dance is for everyone and that it has the power to transform people's lives, Helga facilitates dance projects with people from all walks of life from children to teenagers, adults and older adults. Her work particularly focuses on education and health care settings. 

​In 2014 Helga published the article 
'Freedom to move, freedom to stop: A somatic approach to empowerment in community dance' in the Journal of Dance, Movement and Spiritualities. ​​
