I am a Cambridgeshire-based dance artist, dance teacher and creative practitioner with many years' experience in dance and health and in community arts. I devise and deliver dance and health programmes in the community, in clinical settings, in museums and galleries, and outdoors in nature.

My current projects as lead dance artist include the Dance for Health programme at Cambridge University Hospitals, and the Dance at the Museum programme at the Fitzwilliam Museum. My work holds inclusivity and integration of the arts at the core, finding inspiration in somatic practice and the process of improvisation and imagination, calibrating and bridging perceived cultural differences, age differences and health differences.

My work in the field of health and medicine creates bridges between subjective, phenomenological perspectives of the body, and traditionalist approaches to medicine, health and wellbeing.

I believe in the transformative practice of movement and music bringing meaning and hope to people of all ages and at all stages of life. Much of my work is focused on transforming the obstacles to living well that older people often face and shifting prejudices of ageism.
