Improvisation workshop
Here you get to know my method and are introduced to the economical art of moving. It is all based on an intensive examination of oneself. The workshop is aimed at all stage artists who would like to enhance their knowledge of improvisation, which supports the artistic and personal development process.
The workshop is aimed at all professional or aspiring stage artists (circus artists of all disciplines, dancers, performers) who would like to expand their improvisation skills.

Weekly Courses and workshops
in juggling for all
In the classes we mainly learn how to juggle with balls. We concentrate on the feeling for the ball, the timing and the movement sequences. These form the basis for learning different juggling patterns with both one and multiple balls. Tricks are divided into segments: this leads to a conscious understanding and noticeable (experienceable) progress. Creativity is awakened in a playful way, giving rise to inspiration for new connections and variations, as well as new tricks. The lessons are individually adapted to the needs of the participants: these may range from additional juggling props to support for the development of a juggling act, from technical tricks with many balls to a range of variations with one, two or three balls.
Once a solid foundation has been laid, there is the possibility of using partner and group exercises to experience and increase collaboration in a team.
Juggling is good for coordination, connecting both sides of the brain, concentration, reflection and experiencing a learning process, while having fun. It is an ideal distraction when working at a computer screen and it refreshes the mind.
​
No previous knowledge is necessary.
A workshop can be booked for any team-building or group events and functions. The workshop is individually adapted to your needs.

Juggling workshop
for all levels
Sunday 16.6. 24 from 9 am to 1 pm
In this workshop you will learn ball feeling, timing, movement sequences, different tricks, juggling in pairs and in a group. You will also learn the basic techniques of improvisation and creation, whether you want to create your own tricks and sequences or design an entire juggling act. Various juggling props will be introduced and prepared for learning.
The content and programme will be adapted to the interests and abilities of the participants.
The desired topics will be taught in individual blocks. Everyone can choose for themselves what they would like to work on.
As practising is a very important part of juggling, it is good if there is enough time for this
there is enough time for this without any new impulses. This makes it possible for very different levels to get their money's worth, from beginners to advanced.
Location: Circus School Basel, Gundeldingerfeld, Dornacherstrasse 192, 4053 Basel
Cost: 80.- / reduced 70.-

Artistic accompaniment of professional and aspiring circus artists
With my many years of experience as a guest lecturer at the ACaPA and as an artistic accompanist for various companies and artists, I often support the creation of pieces and performance acts. My main interest thereby lies in recognising the core idea and elaborating on it until it is finely tuned.
Furthermore, my offer includes the artistic accompaniment of budding artists, amateurs and professionals. This accompaniment ranges from help with juggling technique, to support in creative processes, to promoting the reflection on one's own (!) character.
