Why me

I’m sure there are many other techniques out there but this is what I can do really well.

Creating a connection with you to see your potential and work together towards your goal.

Who am I

I’m Italian and 48 years old, now living in Austria, Vienna.

I studied and taught dance and at the same time studied and worked in the scientific area.

Ballett, modern dance, jazz, contemporary, aerial silk, afro-cuban (and even salsa and tango!), you name it…

Then I hit a crisis because I could not find my place in the dance world anymore. Went out, studied contact improv, DanceAbility (and certified as a teacher), and came back into the dance world. I started my research as a movement researcher. I wanted to find new ways to dance, to move, reorganise my movements, and get rid of the old movement patterns I had learned over the years. Reorganising my dance, finding the inner dance.

Time then was ripe for becoming a mum and for stillness, reflection and acceptance for my new body shaped from the pregnancy.

I then created a method based on my experience for learning and creativity in dance and how to apply it in daily life: Imaginative Inside-Out dance. A new course (Glowing You!) was created, and students were happy.

Nevertheless, something was missing and I discovered that I was in a difficult relationship and was not listening to my needs. Another crisis as a teacher hit me and went again into a path of looking inside me.

Finally in September 2021, I certified as an Embodiment Coach. And here I am. With all I’ve collected and let go, ready to offer you this approach to mind-body connection, creativity, and daily life.

Last but not least, I’ve started also the training to become a “Life and Social Counselor” (Lebens- und Sozialberaterin) and I’m happy to offer you more tools for your daily life and to accompany you in your journey with an even more quality in our sessions together.

They say about me that ….

 

“Alessandra is a sweet and at the same time strong person that can spread/infuse warmth and energy.

She is a good and beautiful dancer, careful, precise, curious and creative.

Always looking for new inspirations and never settled on acquired certainty. Opened towards the others.

Excellent working partner in creating and bringin on a project: determined, collaborative, reliable.

She is facing difficult situations with calm and she is not giving up so easily.

I got to know her also as a DanceAbility and creative dance teacher with children and groups of mixed abilities. I've appreciated the clarity of the (training) proposals and the sensitivity and elegance as well as the authority/assurance in the direction of the class."

Sometimes

You just need another point of view and the right support to trust that

Yes,

You will make the right choice.

Chatting?

Embodiment Coaching is sometimes clearer when tried out.

It’s an exploration itself, so why not explore it for the first time?

You have the possibility to book a first free session with me and you can ask your questions and discover the first good changes.
