IBDAW is not a dance style. It is a system - a stage between the abstract and concrete worlds - that trains dancers to translate clear ideas into meaningful, precise performance. It uses any style and movement to express the idea. IBDAW develops clear, expressive dancers - for films, shows, or simply for personal growth.  

"IBDAW" is pronounced "Ibdaa"

In 2012, I stood on stage and realized I was just following orders - “bend your knee, straighten your arm” - not because it meant anything, but because the choreographer wanted it that way. I could not ask why. I could not even question it.

That moment broke something in me.

I did not want to perform empty shapes anymore. I wanted to move with meaning - to speak through my body, not decorate space.

That is why I created IBDAW  2012–2024:

It is rooted in the Playing State Philosophy, which allowed me to form these 2 key elements that set IBDAW apart:

1- Trains the dancer to become the idea.

2- Uses many arts, belongs to none.

🟢 Public Definition: I Breathe. Dance. All Ways.

🔒 Practitioner Definition: A precise framework known only to those who walk the inner path of the method.

While it draws from ballet, modern, and contemporary dance techniques - basic positions, rolling, jumping, shifting, lifting, partnering, off-balance control, flow, and more - its true purpose is revealed in performance. IBDAW uses any movement vocabulary in the world. Any dance style, whether it’s ballet, house, hip-hop, salsa, football, basketball, or even typing - if a movement serves the idea, we use it. If it does not, we remove it. 

IBDAW is a space for dancers who ask “why?”

For those who do not want to be told what to do, but want to understand what they are doing - and why. It is a playground, not a factory.

I do not train robots. We question, co-create, and translate clear ideas into clear, meaningful performance.

It’s not about being professional - it’s about being good enough to serve the idea.

You do not need to be a professional dancer to train in IBDAW.

You only need one thing: the willingness to question, to feel, and to translate thought into movement. If you bring the right mindset, you can become a dancer - no matter your background.
