Interview with Tina Afiyan Breiova about his career and approach to teaching contemporary dance in an international context.

Tina Afiyan Breiova, a dancer of Armenian origin living in London, recounts how her practice as a dance teacher has become an important part of her identity. Enthusiastically holding the position of director of movement in cinema, she likes to see collaboration develop among all contributors to a film as they work toward a common goal. This crops up in her dance teaching through the enjoyment of exploring learning processes with students to find the keys to movement together. An encounter from the En aparté series produced by Circuit-Est.
