From a very young age, my body was my language. Dance and movement became both my passion and my medicine — a way to express what words could not. Yet my childhood was marked by difficulty and trauma, leaving deep pain that I carried silently.
Healing did not come quickly. It required patience, courage, and a devotion to self-love. Even now, my wounded inner child still whispers, but today I carry tools that help me meet those moments with compassion and presence.
Born in the Czech Republic, I left home at 14 to follow the path of dance, living and creating across Switzerland, Germany, France, Canada, South Korea, Mexico, and Thailand. Dance saved me — but it also pushed me beyond my limits. By my mid-twenties, my body began to break under the weight of perfectionism, injury, and burnout. That collapse became a threshold: an invitation to listen more deeply, to face my shadows, and to turn inward.
Yoga opened the doorway. Later, plant medicine, somatic work, nervous system regulation, and the transformative power of sound and voice carried me further. These practices guided my passage from the performing arts into the healing arts — from performance to presence.
In my 15+ years as a performer and choreographer, I discovered that the true art is not about display, but about authenticity. To create from essence rather than expectation. To let the body become not only an instrument of art, but also a vessel of healing, spirit, and truth.
