RHYTHM. MOVEMENT. ANITA.

I play rhythms. I'm in sync with rhyhtm. I facilitate rhythm. 

I'm focused on Body Music / Body Percussion. On the pedagogical side I offer trainings, courses and workshops at the intersection of music, movement and language for teachers, students, artists and other target groups.

My artistic projects range from performances, theatre and videos to cooperation with other artists. With the Body Music group "Groove Crew", an exciting project has kept me busy the past months, some of the results you can already see on video. I had the chance to record some tracks with Barbatuques for their amazing CD AYÚ and could also perform on stage with this outstanding group. Another area I'm engaged in are percussive dances like Schuhplatteln and Gumboots. I practice and share Bamboo Flow and Yoga and completed an Embodied Flow Yoga Teacher Training with Tara Judelle.

BODY MUSIC. KIDS. YOUTH.  

My Body Music play for young audiences,  "Mrs. FOPS Expedition Rhythmus", premiered in 2018. With the piece "Müller & Schöller" I was touring for the Goethe Institute in Argentina, Chile and Brazil.

I published two illustrated books for children (and adults): "Emil the Lime" (2017) was followed by “Ameise, Sandkorn und Träne” (2018).

MY TRAINING

I studied Rhythmics/Music and Movement Pedagogy at the University for Music and Performing Arts Vienna. Before this, I graduated in English Studies and Sociology (University of Vienna, University of Edinburgh). Countless times I travelled for work and studies to Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Uruguay, Columbia, El Salvador, Mali, Bali, Canada and the USA, as well as to other countries within Europe. I had the chance to study music with Bobby McFerrin, Keith Terry, Fernando Barba, Dudu Tucci, Ari Colares, Adriano Adewale and others, as well as to dance with Oumou Mariko, Koffi Koko, Morena Nascimento, Ziya Azazi and many more.
