I began my journey as a passionate dancer, in love with music, nature and travel.
My path has led me to become a guide, sharing my experience with people in Italy and other countries around Europe, helping them find authenticity and inner connection.

At the age of 21, I left London to explore the world, and after travelling to different places, I settled in Tuscany, participating in a project to create an alternative and ecological lifestyle.

For over 30 years, I have lived in the countryside, where nature is a constant source of inspiration and nourishment.

My passion for dance, which began at a young age, has always brought me peace and joy, leading me to explore free and expressive dance as a tool for healing. I left the rigid structure of dance schools to follow a path of personal exploration and expressive freedom, a journey that continues to inspire me today.

My Training Journey

My training led me to explore various dance styles, from Indian to African, including the tarantella. I studied dance as a healing tool, training in Trance Dance and Maria Fux’s Dance Movement Therapy method.

Over the years, I expanded my knowledge through self-healing courses, shamanic ceremonies, and women’s circles, culminating in 2006 with the discovery of the 5Rhythms practice and Conscious Dance.

Today, I am a certified 5Rhythms Waves & Heartbeat level teacher.

I integrate all my experiences and knowledge toghether with the 5Rhythms practice, using them as tools for healing and awareness. I primarily work with groups but also offer individual sessions to help people discover their true selves and manifest their talents.

I love organizing personal growth retreats in the Italian countryside, where dance, music, and creativity merge with the regenerative power of nature, enriching my work.

The OLLA aps Association, together with the founding members, aims to create a dynamically effective platform to promote, on as many occasions as possible, the management of emotional and physical resources in each individual. Through an awareness of the connection between body and mind, emotions and actions, our goal is to promote the harmonious development of each of us. In essence, our objective is to consciously integrate physical and psychological individuality to achieve psychophysical well-being through a renewed harmony with Nature and the Universe.

The OLLA asd Association directs its attention and activities to everyone, as anyone can benefit from a rediscovered balance between emotional and physical resources. However, we pay particular attention to individuals who need to restore their relationship with their bodies and emotional balance following intensive treatments or those facing the challenges of a particularly stressful life and to the younger generations.

To achieve our goals, we have chosen to harness the potential of free expressive dance not only as a source of expressive development but also as a resource and a means of connecting with others, rediscovering the pleasure of essential, necessary, and profoundly human movement.

To understand how the OLLA aps Association is structured, you can refer to its constitution, available for viewing.
