Cindy... a.k.a. RAGE for the krump world... I'm a choreographer, dancer and dance teacher.
My style? I guess it is a result of a wide variety of cultural influences such as Krumping, Hip-Hop, Dancehall, African Dance, Popping and some Contemporary stuffs...?.
Dance is to me a real art of expression, a way to inspire an audience, a way to “sayâ€â€¦â€¦. Focussing on Hip-Hop Theatre, my aim is to make a difference in the world through the performing arts, raising awareness through my pieces which are issue based (knife crime, modern slavery, child soldiers, homeless people, freedom of women around the world, etc.). Passion is my drive!
Other than dancing... I'm passionate of personnal research of my Self and Others, gaining more knowledge about how and why people interact, think, act or don't act... I love discovering and understanding other cultures, new ways of thinking, traditions and beliefs - Life is to me taking action and taking risks, it is about creating your Self and not trying to discover who you are, Life is the result of the game you decide to play with the rules you decide to follow, Passion is my way of living...!
My background... Born and raised in Belgium, I moved to the UK in 2005. I began a career as a Hip-Hop dancer in parallel of my studies in... Sociology and Anthropology! Passionnate, life made me travel widely (Los Angeles, New York, Sweden, France, Holland) to improve my skills and to gain more experience of the arts industry. I've been teaching workshops in many countries such as Trinidad and Tobago, Morocco, and Crete. I started choreographing in 2003 with "Joy And Pain" (Belgium). I'm now focussed and mainly choreographing Dance Theatre pieces: "Feminine Emotions" (London), "Thought I had a feeling… in the Dark" (London), "Delirusion" (in collaboration with Clara - London). I choreographed "Now I belong...", "as if tomorrow won't exist" and "Nightmares and Dreams" performed by ELDYC. I also choreographed for "The Fiddler", a play produced by Faith Drama Productions.
Watch out for my next piece... "Yes, I still exist"... work in progress! (see you in 2009!)
