 Who is a person/expert on your field that you admire?

Pina Bausch, a German dancer and choreographer who revolutionized contemporary dance and always remained at the forefront, was born in Solingen (Germany) in 1940

She was a pioneer of contemporary dance, before the dance was typecast only in the ballet technique, where everything is very structured, she took a turn and released the dance, letting the body really express itself without limits. creator of an avant-garde style that was born of German expressionism and is mesclo with the emotions and presence of other artistic disciplines. 

She has created one of the most recognized work "the consecration of spring", was premiered May 29, 1913, went around the world and to this day remains one of the best works and fundamental part of the culture in dance.  

I chose Pina Bausch because I admire her as a dancer, choreographer and person, she gave a whole revolution in dance that allowed to demonstrate the body in a free form and without limits. giving us the tools to express ourselves outside the technique and more natural.

Personally it has always cost me the ballet because I supposedly don’t have the body of a dancer, but she has shown me that you don’t need that technique or a perfect body to be a dancer.
