The Creative Body Project
Moving with creativity and in community to support health, joy and confidence.
The Concept
The Creative Body is a project that connects people and promotes creative autonomy through dance and movement.
Drawing on more than 20 years of teaching experience with hundreds of people worldwide, TCB is grounded in one central conviction: creativity and health grow together and through our relationship with our own body, with others and the world around us.
At the heart of the work lies the Landscape of Practices, TCB’s framework. Through it, participants explore a varied range of movement and dance practices that prepare them to respond to life: to meet uncertainty with presence, creativity, and embodied confidence.
The Framework
The Creative Body is grounded in the Landscape of Practices, my core framework for working creatively with dance and movement based practices. Rather than treating movement as a set of techniques or disciplines, this framework invites people to explore different qualities of moving and being - such as stability, endurance, focus - through a wide range of practices.
These qualities are understood as parts of a living landscape that can be entered, explored, modified and rearranged over time. In a world shaped by information overload and constant instruction, the Landscape of Practices offers orientation instead of rules, supporting people in developing creative autonomy and a more intuitive relationship with practice.
Through this framework, participants learn to choose to move through the landscape however they need, integrating it seamlessly into everyday life. Over time, this shifts not only how they move, but also how they relate to learning, creating, and uncertainty. This embodied understanding helps people feel intelligent in their bodies—an experience that is deeply empowering, regardless of age, background, or gender.
The 4 Pathways
There are four main ways to engage with The Creative Body. #1 Join the TCB Membership for regular online practice to build regularity in community. #2 For those who want to deepen their understanding and application of the work, Teaching Labs provide focused spaces for exploration, learning, and practice.
#3 If you are looking for personalized support, the individual coaching program offers a one-to-one process tailored to your questions, projects, or life context. #4 You can also bring The Creative Body into your institutions or organization through booking an exclusive course or workshop that adapt the work to your cultural, educational, or organizational settings.
Pathway #1
The Creative Body Membership
The Creative Body Membership invites adults who want to [re]connect with creativity and joy through movement and in community, but don’t know where to begin, nor how to cultivate such a practice in the long run. Through regular online classes, TCB offers clear guidance, structure, and a supportive environment where creative expression and health can develop naturally. Expect greater confidence in your body, more vitality, and a renewed sense of feeling creative again!
Pathway #2
The Creative Body Teaching Lab
A laboratory for aspiring and established teachers who want to expand their pedagogical experience through The Creative Body framework.
Pathway #3
The Individual Coaching
This individual coaching program is called simply Creativity Coaching. It is an exploratory, one-to-one process guided by your own curiosity and, as I like to call, creative spirits. You bring a topic, desire, or sense of direction, and together we approach it creatively - setting “quests,” and moving step by step into exploration. While you remain the one making decisions and taking action, the coaching offers something essential: a shared process. I support you with impulses, perspective, and steady presence, especially when things feel uncertain, so that confidence, clarity, and trust in your own direction can grow.
Pathway #4
TCB Institutions and Organizations
As a dance and movement based framework, The Creative Body serves the purpose to connect cultural education and health promotion. It offers participatory short and long-term formats that make art tangible through the body while supporting wellbeing, creativity, and social connection. The formats are inclusive and adaptable, finding its place in festivals, museums, cultural institutions, educational settings, and workplaces - wherever movement can open new ways of learning, relating, and engaging collectively.
