Referent*in #66 - Helen Omari West
This is what Helen says about Helen:
I work primarily as a professional dancer and dance teacher. However, I would rather see my life's work in helping other people in their current life situation and to accompany and support them in your development mentally and physically. I am currently furthering my education in the medical and psychological fields, among others, and would like to integrate this 100% into my work later on. In my lessons I can pass on my knowledge and experiences super.
Helen brings this experience with her:
Due to my own cultural background, I was inevitably confronted with discrimination and racism in every facet since my childhood. So it is - especially today as a grown person - my main focus to stand up for people with similar experiences and also to work preventively (especially with children and young people). So I am active in the BlackLivesMatter movement or get involved in dance projects like: the Emotions-Project on this topic.
