Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To explore, create, have fun, contribute and grow.
ABOUT ME
Love to dance, learn, create and play. I have a particular passion for Argentine Tango, which I teach. Generally very friendly, often contemplative. On my more 'serious' side, I have an interest in politics and economics, especially sustainable, equitable and scalable approaches to collaboration.
and my favourite quote at the moment:
"He who binds to himself a joy
Does the winged life destroy;
But he who kisses the joy as it flies
Lives in eternity's sun rise."
-- William Blake
PHILOSOPHY
I like the sound of 'spontaneous mindful pragmatism' and feel like it's what I've been moving towards in recent years. I also like the ideas, 'honesty with humanity', 'empathy leads to loving respect' (Rosenberg), and 'to move forward, first get out of your own way' quite a lot.

Teach, Learn, Share
I teach Argentine tango dancing, make websites and know a fair bit about fitness. I've done a few massage workshops (Shiatsu, indian head massage, accupreasure, hand reflexology). I'm also a pretty good listener. I'm happy to share any of these skills.
