ABOUT ME

I’m Tara Bredemeier, a German-Irish dance artist and pedagogue based in Hamburg. My practice connects contemporary dance, breaking and movement education.

02 / My story

From Hamburg to Ireland, and back

Dance has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. My professional journey began at Lola Rogge Schule in Hamburg, where I qualified as a dance pedagogue in 2022.

I went on to freelance in Ireland, working across contemporary dance, performance, creative projects and teaching. Alongside this work, I continued to develop my own movement practice.

In 2024, I began breaking. It opened another way into my practice, connecting my experience in dance theatre with hip-hop culture. Today, those experiences continue to inform how I perform, create and teach.
