After 25 years of dancing, I have started to promote the benefits of dance on people’s mind, body, soul and socio-emotional development. In order to achieve a balance in our development, I consider that an interdisciplinary approach is needed to look at the human body as a whole. Everything we express through movement has an emotional, psychic component that gives us clues about us and how we interact.
Feeling the healing power of dance, as therapeutic and creative tool I began to study and observe using movement analysis, the motivation behind the movements, the links it has with the psyche and the silent body language in social interactions.
My work was, is and will be guided by dance-therapists with experience from New York and London (i.e. Suzi Tortora, Tasha Colbert).
For me, my whole life remains a dance, in which I transform, rediscover myself and create my own choreography.

I think the best investment is in us, and that means continuous effort. Sometimes it can be harder, other times even fun or exciting. Through my job as a style coach and image consultant, I see people catching wings. Even if the exterior may seem “superficial”, less important than the interior, the exterior matters as well.
Looking good, wearing the clothes that suit you, the ones that help you shine and learning how to choose them contributes a lot to self-confidence. Clothes talk a lot about who you are, what you like, how much you care about yourself, how much you value yourself
It would be wonderful if the way we see ourselves corresponds to the way others see us. That’s what I do – I help people see and accept themselves as they are and stand out, and I remind them that we are all beautiful through our imperfections. The way we treat ourselves, our body is a reflection of our inner world.
In the first years of life, the life seeds are put for everything that will grow in children over time. For these seeds to give birth to happy future adults, the environment in which they grow needs to be full of warmth, love, attention and security. When families join the Educators and are together in this growth process, the best and most suitable environment is created for the needs of the children. Thus, “Happy Kids for a Happy Life” was the starting point for many projects in preschool education, where communication and active collaboration with parents has become the key to success in children’s development.
Dancing means a lot to me. It is my daily job and at the same time a necessity, a way to feel free and detach myself from everything that means reality. Through dance I express myself best; when I go through harder moments, I find certain answers in movement, but also when I am happy, I dance.
I like to share my knowledge about dance, teach other people, show them what movement and dance mean, and guide them to a better understanding of their bodies.
I studied Psychology because I wanted to work with people. I’ve been studying the play (becoming a play and drama psychotherapist within the Romanian Association of Play Therapy and Dramatherapy) – because I discovered that by playing we stay young and we keep our inner child.
I am a psychologist who loves creativity and play, caring about people, with a professional experience enriched in over 15 years of working with children and adults from disadvantaged backgrounds, elderly people, children with various disabilities or developmental delays, emotional and behavioural difficulties.
I am passionate about dance and movement (I have studied with professionals in the Romanian Association of Psychotherapy through Dance and Movement the way in which movement brings us into contact with our body), dramatherapy, expressive development methods, which I’ve explored first on myself. In the last years, I have combined and shared them in creative workshops with people eager to rediscover themselves.
I took the first steps – literally and figuratively – in the practice of taiji fifteen years ago; it was the moment when I began to step on the path of inner knowledge, the search for happiness and harmony. I had the chance to meet teachers and guides who supported me on this journey and who motivated and inspired me later in what came naturally later, namely the desire to give and share from the valuable tools received and deep experiences. transformers. Taiji and Qigong, both therapeutic and spiritual practices, have become a way of life for me, they have taught me how to connect with myself and how to find the inner source of joy, balance and fulfilment.
