Our bodies contain our experiences. When we move and make, we process our experiences to create meaning. These are pathways to transformation which lead to a life of quality. I help people connect with themselves, others, and to global ideas and communities. I assist people who want to feel safe and empowered in their physicality and those who know that somatic engagement is a critical component to learning, healing, and leading.

Connect to yourself: Use movement to rehearse real life.

  • Movement study workshops in self-compassion, listening and asserting, resilience, journeying, and more.
  • Functional movement to support inner strength.

Connect to others: Let’s develop the staying power your audience needs in order to learn, grow, heal, and lead.

  • Interpersonal and engagement coaching for teachers, therapists, and professionals:
    • Lead your students in social-emotional learning;
    • Create the bridge for therapy clients to enter somatic therapy practices,
    • Enlivening professional conversations will lead you to better work and bring you better clients.
  • Best practices in movement education, arts education, and assessment.

Connect to big ideas: Join community of seekers moving toward wholeness.

  • 1:1 coaching for developing your dynamic, emotionally intelligent work.
  • Nimble Body Book Club: moving bodies, minds, and ideas forward.

“You are the smartest, most fun teacher, ever!” -Violet D.

Art and Science drive my work. Each class, course, workshop, and presentation I design takes the participant from function to articulation to meaning to expression.

I subscribe to inclusive and compassionate philosophies, which means I :

  • Create a welcoming environment for all bodies and abilities,
  • Promote health at every size,
  • Encourage the teachers I train to be themselves, in their own movement vocabulary and not imitations of my work.
