'My fascination about Anouk`s work has been with me, since I first met her in School. The technique and the thoughts behind her approach, as well as her performances and her way into creation, have always shown a world I wanted to be part of. Anouk gives us dancers a lot of space for personal input during creation as well as on stage. Her trust towards us, which is not necessarily common in the dance world, allows a very different working atmosphere to take place. Since the moment I joined, I not just changed and grown as a dancer, and had the chance and support to discover my teaching gene, but also gained an immense appreciation towards all my collegues and learned a lifetime from them. What a wonderful groupe of people to work and be with!!!'
