Geraldine Balcazar is a generous dancer with a background in contemporary dance, performance art, yoga and other dance forms. She refers to movement, rather than dance as part of her practise and is interested in making dance available to a wider audience. More recently she has studied and worked with concepts from body mind centering by Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen and has been looking after her one year old son Max after moving to the North Coast of NSW. In this interview she talks about how she got into dance, why she chooses to frame her practise around movement, her influences and what she's more focused on in her dance at present. Hope you enjoy listening to this interview with this lovely human being.
