About Me And My Work

Dancer and choreographer of more than 30 years, my career has journeyed me through my native London, New York, Spain, Los Angeles and now France. My work is a melting pot of contemporary, classical and flamenco dance forms expressed in concert work, dance-theatre productions and short films. I have recently become a home-owner in the countryside near Paris. This a home I plan to turn into a creative center for others to enjoy and be inspired by.

Places I Would Like To Visit

Until now I have always been a gypsy but very recently I have finally become a home-owner in the countryside near Paris. This a home I plan to turn into a creative center for others to enjoy and be inspired by. So, less globe trotting for me, but I hope to attract trotters to this place for residencies, workshops, retreats and collaborations.

Art Forms And Cultures I Would Like To Engage With

I would be excited to come across a filmmaker and/or animator interested in developing a short dance film project inspired by the countryside here in France - and by whatever else moves us at the time.

My Creative Influences & Favorite Artists

Twyla Tharp, Pina Bausch, Nijinsky, Egon Schiele, Arthur Rackham, Aubrey Beardsley, Lorca, Rainer Maria Rilke's The Notebooks of Malte Laurids Brigge, Garcia Marquez, Shakespeare, Dickens, the Bronte sisters, Mark Rothko, early Disney, Maya Deren, the Quay Brothers (especially Institute Benjamenta), Wim Wenders..... rhythm.
