Jo
Performer born and based in Porto.
Addicted to Learning, Exploring and Materializing.
Inspired by Nature and People.
Joyfully hopping between Worlds.
Since my first experience with site-specific creation in Sub-18 (NEC, Porto, 2004), I have been practicing, training and working within the world of Contemporary Dance through studying, performing, creating, teaching and other less defined formats. On an bumpy road I rediscovered the joy of living and connecting through the practice of Folk Dancing and Singing.
Besides the performative work I guide regular dance sessions and workshops for children, young people, adults and people with and without special needs in several places between Portugal, Macau and Austria, since 2011.
