About Anaïs :

I am a movement teacher, body-soul worker, poet-photographer-performer living in Alentejo, South Portugal.
I weave my dance spaces with the teachings of nature beings, silence and Spirit. I am a devotee of Love, wilderness, deep listening and raw untamed expression. My main dancing heart roots drink from animism, authentic movement, contact improvisation, Tandava (dance mediation practice from Kashmiri Shivaism) butoh and core shamanism journeying.
My spaces are dedicated to community care and well-being, and to personal blossoming into acceptance. In my research’s playground, my favourite questions are : how to dance with paradoxes and polarities, dive in the luminous cracks of our fertile darkness, and build bridges and rainbows between our parts, and between us? How to build community within ourselves and among each others? How to cultivate presence, connection and acceptance ?
I offer a bi-monhtly class of Open Hearts Dance, my own modality since 2017, that  combines most of what I drink from and is evolving in a space of bodypoetry, contemplative somatics and the pure rawness of our heart-soul expression. I hold space for grief rituals, blindfolded journeys, authentic movement, exploration in nature, and silent contact jams. 
I am the parent of 2 beings who needs bigger shoes than me.
You will find more about by universe here on my website. Feel welcome.
