Biodanza Classes and Events

What is Biodanza?

Biodanza, 'The Dance of Life' is a system of improvised movements which originally was developed in the 1960s by the Chilean psychologist Rolando Toro, and now is loved by people in 54 countries. The system brings to today's world dances and body movements from ancient and modern traditions. You will be dancing solo, in twos and in groups. There are fast dances for physical well-being and vitality, and slow exercises which helps relieve the stress of your busy week.

Biodanza is suitable for anyone, of any age and any ability.

Testimonials

"Olga creates a safe, welcoming space at her Biodanza classes. Here I can express myself through movement, playfulness, intimacy with others, explore my sensuality and my instincts. I am free to feel my emotions and my soulfulness. Olga’s vast experience as a facilitator help her to bring the deep Biodanza principles to life with lightness, humour and wisdom.  I often feel rejuvenated and have a deeper connection to myself, to others and to life after Olga’s class."
