​SOCIALLY ENGAGED DANCE

Socially engaged dance forms an integral part of Helga's artistic practice. With a passionate belief in the empowering and transformative potential of dance, Helga facilitates projects with people from all walks of life from children to teenagers, adults and older adults. Her work particularly focuses on dance and health and dance in education. 

​Helga's work is informed by ongoing and rigorous research into empowerment, models of best practice and collaborative methods. She 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. ​​
