Research & Academic Writing

As a dedicated teacher and dance scientist, my academic work is an integral part of my ongoing exploration of the intersection between dance, science, and pedagogy. On this page, you will find a collection of my dissertations, essays, and other academic writing that reflect my commitment to advancing knowledge in the field of dance. These works explore various aspects of dance science, ballet pedagogy, and the broader dance world, all with the goal of improving dancers´ well-being, performance, and education.

 

I invite you to explore these writings to gain a deeper understanding of my research interests and how they inform my approach to teaching, training, and supporting the next generation of dancers.
