She teaches this discipline in other contexts: training of dance teachers, training of body discipline teachers (Yoga, Pilates ...) training of the dancer interpreter (Ecole Nationale Supérieure de Marseille, Juste Debout School / Hip Hop, danseurs de tango argentin...) ...

And, then, she trains herself and practices the somatic and educational techniques; Feldekrais, Alexander, Eutonia, Pilates, Girotonic, BMC, Yoga, Rolfing ...She teaches anatomy-physiology applied to movement.

 

She has been dancing Argentine tango for about ten years, and makes regular trips to Buenos Aires to work, tap into it and share what is unique in the country's commitment and body culture. She applies her teaching and research to this couple dance for some years now.

 

She is a trainer and a member of the teaching committee for the training of AFCMD specialists at the CESMD in Poitou-Charentes since 2013.
