Who they are
A clinical psychologist with a psychodynamic approach, he brings psychology and dance together in a single career. Trained in Sports Psychology through the Psyco Sport Master's and in Clinical Sexology, he is currently specialising in Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy at the SPP in Turin. He sits on the IDO Medical-Scientific Committee as a sports psychologist and is Regional Counsellor for Piedmont at FIPSIS. Technical and Artistic Director of Al Ma Academy, he is an international judge and coach to multi-champion athletes. Thirty years in dance let him speak to dancers from an unusual place: someone who knows the floor through his own body, not only through theory.
