Rebekka Pichler
Rebekka Pichler graduated from the MUK Vienna in 2022 with a degree in contemporary dance education. This was followed by an Erasmus+ internship at ATOM Theatre in Sofia, where she performed with the company, created her own piece and taught open classes. Rebekka’s first encounters with dance were strongly influenced by Ottilie Mitterhuber, who was a student of Hanna Berger and Grete Wiesenthal, among others, at the dance department of the Academy of Music and Performing Arts from 1947 to 1951, and her husband Alois Mitterhuber. In the musical and expressive way of teaching of the dancer and teacher couple she retrospectively finds parallels to Wiesenthal’s approaches. Rebekka’s musical background gives her a deep understanding of music, which she consciously uses in her work as a dancer, choreographer and teacher.
