I am Steffi Rose from Darmstadtt
MOVEMENT ARTIST AND FACILITATORN
I teach AcroYoga, Contact Improvisation, and Movement – for people who don't just want to move their bodies, but truly want to arrive.
My way into the movement.
Movement has been part of my life since childhood. Gymnastics, handball, ballet, capoeira, yoga, dance – at some point, movement became my language. And I realised early on: when I move, I get out of my head and connect with myself.
My work has grown from this experience. From genuine curiosity, not from a syllabus. For over ten years, I have been accompanying people in AcroYoga, Contact Improvisation and Movement. In Darmstadt, in Portugal and wherever there is a desire to explore together. In 2023, I founded the Movement Flow Fest. This year will be the fourth edition. Since 2024, I have been a lecturer in Mitja Berg's Movement Trainer training.
What carries me are the moments when someone flies for the first time, lets go, or feels that movement is also encounter. With oneself, with others, with the moment.
WHAT MAKES ME tick
Eye-level movement.
No performance pressure. We'll start from where you are now.
Playful instead of overthought. Movement can be light. That's precisely when what's profound happens.
Holistic. Body, Contact, Presence.
WHAT I STAND FOR
Three principles that underpin every room.
Appreciative collaboration
Everyone is welcome as they are. We treat each other mindfully, on and off the mat.
Nonviolent Communication
Boundaries are heard and respected. A clear yes and a clear no both have their place.
Respect the pace
Your body sets the pace. There's no such thing as too slow, only your way, in your rhythm.
