What an immense joy and privilege it was to perform a new fan dance as part of the Opening Circle meditation of the Gardens of Babylon event in Basel, Switzerland. It was all very last minute, but the moment I met Matthias Philipsen and Guy Van Campenhout, the vibe was immediate – we knew weContinue reading “The Gardens of Babylon – Viertel Klub, Basel”

The Gardens of Babylon – Porto Cervo
The last couple of weeks have reignited my spark in a way that I hadn’t felt for a while. To be able to come together and celebrate with the incredible team at The Gardens of Babylon, when times are crazy dark out there, was the best birthday gift I could ever ask for. My heartContinue reading “The Gardens of Babylon – Porto Cervo”
Goodwood x Lovebullets – Halloween at the House
This Halloween I teamed up with Lovebullets for Chapter II of a series of magical events on the spectacular grounds of Goodwood’s sprawling Estate. Goodwood House was transformed into a travelling spaceship, which led the guests through a multi-sensory playground of light, sound and performance.

Glastonbury Festival 2014
Despite the weather and extreme survival conditions, Glastonbury is always amazing. This year, however, was particularly exciting as I got to perform not only ‘Atma’, but also 2 of my most recent hoop acts. ‘Black Out Days’ was specifically devised for the Circus Big Top and, although it was presented as work in progress, it received very positiveContinue reading “Glastonbury Festival 2014”
The Act, Dubai
After becoming a regular performer at The Box, London, I had the pleasure to go and spin my hoops at its Dubai partner club, The Act – the highest theatre venue in the world. Located on the 42nd and 43rd floor of the Shangri-la Hotel, The Act is a very refreshing antidote to Dubai’s sometimesContinue reading “The Act, Dubai”
The Jarvis Party
Jarvis Cocker LOVES hua hoops – FACT. After jamming with him at the Village Underground in 2009, as part of his 3-day ‘Exhibition of himself’, I had the absolute pleasure to perform for the very wonderful Jarvis Cocker’s 50th birthday party. Jarvis personally asked me to perform to Krafterk’s classic ‘Ruckzuck’, which was a great fun challenge,Continue reading “The Jarvis Party”
Glastonbury Festival 2013
An even bigger, even better Circus Big Top was my home for a week at Glastonbury Festival 2013. Once again, it was an absolute pleasure to share the stage with so many incredibly talented performers, coming from all over the world. In fact, thanks also to what was probably the warmest English summer in years,Continue reading “Glastonbury Festival 2013”
‘Gynoid’ Photoshoot
In ‘Gynoid’ I’m exploring movement and manipulation, as well as the relation between the machine and the human body, through hula hoops. How is our body affected by the props and tools, that we use every day? If our body is the main tool, the machine, what can influence and radically transform its appearance andContinue reading “‘Gynoid’ Photoshoot”
Hula Hooping Bon Bons at Fortnum & Mason
Is it possible to fit eight hula hoopers, with 50 hoops each, in one of the world’s oldest, poshest department stores? Hell yeah! In the run – up to Christmas 2010, I had the opportunity to work with some of the best hoopers in London (including Craig Reid, Jessie Rose and Tiina Tuomisto), performing as partContinue reading “Hula Hooping Bon Bons at Fortnum & Mason”
