A guided improvisational movement practice that engages somatic awareness to facilitate personal growth, emotional well-being, and collective healing. Release, Unleash, Connect. It is an alive, high-intensity journey where you can expect to sweat (though you are always in control of your rhythm and pace).This class allows you to engage with the wisdom of your own body, to take you on a journey.

There is wild and real wisdom living in our bones.

The Soul Dance—is a moving meditation practice. A practice, where the more we do it regularly, the more we learn about ourselves, our patterns, our truths and the fluctuations of our minds and emotions. The dance IS the kiln where past, present and future meet in the here and now, moving through you as you.

What is the legacy of the genre/form/style you are teaching?

I curate experiences that draw from over 30 years of deep exploration and immersion in body, earth, mental, spiritual, neuroscience and creative based modalities. Some of which include, improvisational authentic-movement, physical theatre, somatic therapy, dance-movement choreography- highly influenced by Pina Bausch-, ancient practices, shamanic study, yogic, buddhist and influences from my own artistic and spiritual path of healing. Designed for ALL people who want to move their bodies. I guide the journey with intentional music and cues, in a supportive flow that allows each individual and the collective to drop in and dive into their journey. Prepare to sweat, release, and connect. No experience is required.
