Argentinian-born artist Carolina Mancuso has over 22 years of experience in the professional arts field and more than 12 years in education.
As a dancer, she has worked with the Hamburg Ballet of John Neumeier, Nederlands Dans Theater (NDT 1 & 2), and Korzo Productions (NL), among others. Throughout her performing career, she collaborated on numerous creations by internationally renowned choreographers, including Marina Mascarell, Crystal Pite, Jiří Kylián, Ohad Naharin, Astrid Boons, Jasper van Luijk, Marco Goecke, Stijn Celis, Johan Inger, Alexander Ekman, Paul Lightfoot & Sol León, Jiří Pokorný, Antonin Comestaz, Joeri Alexander Dubbe, and Kristian Lever.
Parallel to her dance career, in 2013, she began an in-depth exploration of sensory integration and embodied movement practices. Her research started with joint mechanics, muscle function, and play-based
dissociation training, later expanding into fascia perception and proprioceptive awareness. In pursuit of a somatic perspective, she further immersed herself in Do-In, Body-Mind Centering®, and Yoga. Her professional and personal research led her to develop her own somatic dance approach: Entropy
Sensory Method. Since 2014, she has traveled internationally to teach professional training programs for recognized dance companies, universities, festivals, and independent organizations, including Danish Dance Theater (DK), GöteborgsOperans Danskompani (SE), Skånes Dansteater (SE), Dance Theater Heidelberg (DE), Fondazione Nazionale della Danza Aterballetto (IT), Summer Intensive of Nederlands Dans Theater (NL), Scapino Ballet Rotterdam (NL), ArtEZ University of the Arts (NL), Codarts Rotterdam (NL),
Taipei National University of the Arts (Taiwan), Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique et de Danse de Paris (FR), CobosMika (ES), NOD Nuova Officina della Danza (IT), Milan Contemporary Ballet (IT), Ballet Contemporáneo de Tucumán (ARG), and Flora Movimiento Contemporáneo (ARG).
Pedagogically, her work is aligned with Nonviolent Communication (developed by Marshall Rosenberg) and Horizontal Education principles.
Carolina shares her knowledge through one-on-one sessions, intensives, performative laboratories, and
professional training programs—each with a specific vision and methodology. In addition to teaching, she continues to participate in artistic projects as a performer, co-creator, collaborator, assistant, mentor, and costume designer.
Her current research explores cross-cultural perspectives on the life–death cycle in humans and animals, the recovery of savage intuition and untamed instinct, infancy postural development, and the intelligence of the
sensory body.
