Pihla Jaala is a dancer, educator, and social worker from Finland. Rooted in contemporary dance, Pihla works as a freelancer and teaches contemporary dance, contact improvisation, and improvisation across Hessen.

Currently Pihla lives in Frankfurt am Main where she completed her Master’s degree in Contemporary Dance Education (MA CoDE) at the HfMDK Frankfurt in 2025. Before she finished her studies in Finland in 2023 in Riveria. Above that, she holds a Master’s degree in Social Sciences and Social Work from the University of Eastern Finland (2020).

Pihlas’ practice and approach in teaching is rooted in contemporary floorwork, breaking, improvisation, movement research, and somatic exploration. She approaches movement as an ongoing dialogue between the sensational body and social sphere. Being particularly drawn to working with gravity, softening tissues, momentum, spirals, and anatomical imagery— she explores how these forces and structures allow us to shape how the body moves, yields, and transforms.
