Robin Berkelmans is co-organizer of the festival and professional dancer, teacher & maker of dance. He has 23 years of experience in the field of dance, teaching and performing, and along that path he developed a way in to relate to artistry and movement as a human being in a profound way.
​
CI is one of his favorite approaches to dance - he sees it as a way to move and dance in a joyful way and to encounter deeper layers of his own humanity together with fellow dancers. It is an artistic, social and transformative practice for him. As a teacher, he has been teaching both nationally and internationally for many years now. Next to that, he teaches various subjects at the HBO educations of performing arts in Tilburg and Amsterdam. The subjects include Contact Improvisation, performing, natural posture & functional mobility, and being a maker of theatre, mime and dance.
