I am a passionate dancer, dance is the way I am, it is a way I learn about life. Dance is my sea as well as my harbor.
 

Contact improvisation has brought me a lot: community, people to whom I belong, playful communication, endless exploration, meditation, opportunity to fly ...

And that's why I became a passionate organizer who wants to offer these very valuable experiences for others, for us!

I work as a literary scientist but I have been dancing since my childhood in my free time. Ballet, folklore dance, modern dance or contemporary. When I got to know CI, I absolutely fell in love with it and my enthusiasm hasn't diminished. I am a mum to my darling daughter and a passionate hiker and gardener, too. Organizing a CI festival is a chance for me to became a part of the CI community in Slovakia. I wish CI will have its stabile place in Slovakia and I really want to support this process because "We are those people we are waiting for."

When I have strong vision, there is no other way just make it happen in this reality.  CI festival is one of that vision and I am super happy that we got together. Four amazing women with strong dedication to make CI community in Slovakia grow. My wish is to support our local community as well as international interconectedness which I love about CI. I truly believe that all the people in the world need contact and we can offer a safe space to explore mystery of connection.

I am a teacher, poet, tea ceremonies and forest lover, somatic practitioner and a dancer - particularly of CI:)!

I encountered CI abroad many many years ago and ever since I dreamt to bring this approach in the form of workshops and festivals to my home-country of Slovakia. And here - my dream has come true:)
