Christos Daskalakos

Biodanza ignited a new passion for life in me. It led to incredible joy over the last four years. The power of the technique led me to join the School of Biodanza so that I can pass on this experience to others.“I was born in Johannesburg of Greek decent. The strains of music and dance were a constant feature while I was growing up. While studying at university, my love for dance and movement led me to train as a contemporary dancer and teacher and for ten years I was a member of the Moving Into Dance Company.

My formal education is as an architect and urban designer and presently I run an architectural practice with an interest in Visionary/Spiritual architecture. I am also a part time lecturer at the University of the Witwatersrand in the School of Architecture.

The common thread running through both my construction-related work and dance has been the development of people, exploring ways of enhancing their skills and providing opportunities for personal growth.

My mission in life is to create beauty in the world – beauty in our environment, beauty in our relationships and beauty of the heart.
