Everyday Dancers

• Christa Moritz

  Christa Moritz is a truly creative dancer, someone that isn’t afraid to draw outside the lines and express things differently through movement. Like her most known and loved dance style which is locking, her energy and vibe looks really happy and carefree. When I first met Christa the way she danced helped me to be more open minded about what you could do with dance. A few years ago though Christa had a stroke, following an automobile accident where she was hospitalised and told she would never be able to walk again. Christa proved them wrong, not only learning to walk but dance again too. Fear hasn’t stopped her moving and she continues to inspire others to move.

  PJ is a cool, creative cat. He draws and paints, dances in his own unique way, makes interesting performance based works and a bunch of other stuff too.  He's always got ideas and likes to experiment. If you're ever in Melbourne town he's definitely someone to have a yarn with. Note: Unfortunately due to some technical difficulties there is a short break in the audio around 21 minutes in where the line dropped out and where we had to reconnect.Thanks for tuning in!

• Karla Mathieson - Part 2

  Karla Mathieson is a wonderful human being and dancer. She is super creative and channels her creative energy in lots of different areas from graphic design and art through to popping and roller dance. Her adventures in dance has taken her from a small town in the south of NZ through to Melbourne and even all the way to Korea. Karla had what some might call a traditional start in dance by learning styles like ballet and tap and even flamenco at a young age but where’s she’s taken her dance is vastly different from where she started. Am grateful to have Karla on this episode of everyday dancers to share her story with us. Hope you find it as interesting, inspiring and humbling as I did. Note: Due to some technical issues, the interview got cut halfway and have had to post this in two seperate parts. Here's part 2 of the part 2 series on Karla.

• Simon MacAdams

  Simon MacAdams is a dancer, meditation practitioner, yogi and musician. Simon is based in Melbourne and first started dancing at clubs in Canada before finding popping and later contemporary dance, 5 rhythms, somatic practises and other dance forms. His approach to  his art is very wholistic and in this interview he draws parallels between his spiritual/meditation/yogi practise to his understanding and expression of dance and music. It was great to chat to Simon and understand more about the way he approaches and understands dance as well as his other practices.
