Hi I'm Helene Su, Creator of Niio DanceWelcome to my world, I am happy to meet you here!If I can share the joy, freedom and power that is possible for you through dance that has helped me to see the richness and beauty in this life, then that is your greatest gift to me. Dance has always been my first love, but it is only as an adult that I have realised its power to heal and transform.Being pure Chinese but growing up the UK was not plain sailing for me and when I have felt disconnected, disillusioned and rootless, dance has always been my ally and my friend. I became fascinated with what happens within when we move and explore into the depths of our being, revealing the intelligence that we have in our ‘soma’ – our physical, mental, emotional and spiritual body. Through dance I have experienced powerful shifts of release, flow, connection and wholeness.Having worked with children and young people using drama and the arts, I am also inspired by spontaneity, improvisation and explorations into the unknown, which can reveal new dimensions in our creative psyche.Over the last 20 years I have given talks and workshops at festivals in UK, including the Conference in Dance and Spirituality, and Europe, including Spain, Holland and Portugal and the International Center for Breathwork. And at the Creative Summit for the World Arts and Embodiment Forum. Next March I will be presenting at the Women Thrive Summit.Niio Dance is my commitment to helping you to find personal tools to be vibrant, vital and alive.Teachers I have trained with include: Anna Halprin (Life Art Therapy), Mary Abrams (Continuum), Linda Hartley (Bodymind Centering), Miranda Tuffnell, Patricia Martello (Biodanza), Marie Ware (Dance Voice), Shiva Rea (Vinyasa Flow/ Yoga Trance Dance), Dr Nagarathna (Integrated Yoga Therapy) Stephen Ornellas (Hung Gar Kung Fu), Gill Clarke to name but a few. I am a yoga teacher, trained in dance movement therapy, healing modalities of swedish and thai yoga massage, reflexology, counselling, have an MA in Dance and Somatic Wellbeing and am a Reiki Master.My biggest teachers, however, apart from an initial eight years of intensive ballet has been thirty years of freeform creative, tribal and elemental dance practice on dancefloors both indoor and outdoor around the world, and the students who have come to dance and share their experiences with me.
