I was born in America, grew up in Australia and came to Austria in 1992. I received my BA in Theater and Drama Studies in 1990 from Murdoch University in Perth Western Australia.Since then I have worked on stage and screen (in German and English) for over 30 years as an actor and Improvisor with the English Lovers, Orcas Island Project, TAG Impro All Stars and Vienna Theater Project amongst others, as well as being a Voice Over Artist and Acting Teacher, and from 2001-2024 I was also a CliniClown. I have had the joy of performing and teaching improvisation and acting at countless renowned theater festivals all over the world.My interest in the Feldenkrais Method began during my theater training and experience in performance; building on the principles of recognizing and releasing residual tension, knowing yourself and understanding yourself more deeply as well as being more fully present in the moment.I graduated from the 4 year Feldenkrais International Training Program (2015-2019) at the Feldenkrais Institute in Vienna. In 2021 I graduated from the advanced training program called Child’Space (2019-2021), created by Dr. Chava Shelhav, specializing in the needs and development of babies and children from birth to independent walking. I am also a qualified Pregnant Pauses® teacher and offer these classes upon request.I teach Feldenkrais Awareness Through Movement (ATM) group lessons as part of the curriculum at the Vienna English Theater Academy (VETA) from 2019 - 2024, and the Bilingual Schauspiel Academy beginning in 2024, as well as open classes at Schule des Theaters since 2017.In May 2020 I began teaching ATM classes every Sunday live online via Zoom. I also teach these group lessons as part of Theater Festival Programs, either in-person or online (Babylon in Italy, Törn and IFO in Germany, Vintage Improv and the Tennessee Arts Festival in USA )In 2019 I opened my private practice here in Vienna where I also offer individual Functional Integration lessons, as well as Child’Space sessions for families.Currently I live in Vienna with my husband and 2 sons.
