Hey there! I am back with a one day workshop in support of the Escarpment Corridor Alliance. Gentle dance, creative art, meditation, reflection & conversation. We hope to bring awareness to the precious Beaver Valley which is a Unesco Heritage Site, and protect it from being overdeveloped.
Msg me if you would like more information.

I sometimes forget
that I was created for Joy.
My mind is too busy.
My Heart is too heavy
for me to remember
that I have been
called to dance
the Sacred dance of life.
I was created to smile
To Love
To be lifted up
And to lift others up.
O’ Sacred One
Untangle my feet
from all that ensnares.
Free my soul.
That we might
Dance
and that our dancing
might be contagious.

Anna Halprin, dancer, choreographer, teacher, healer, co-founder of the Tamalpa Institute for movement based expressive arts with her daughter Daria Halprin....has passed away at 100 years old. A real icon in the world of dance! I had the immense pleasure to learn from her several times. Thank you for such a profound body of work and education, learning how to use movement and the arts to tell our stories, rewrite our stories, and move forward feeling more whole. May you be a peace. ✨✨✨

"When I shake my body, my emotions rise up to the surface. My dancing becomes joyful. And then I can look at my kids and notice that they’re cute again"

I am celebrating 25 years of teaching Nia classes. There were 13 years of leading Nia White Belts too. I will post a picture each day for the next 25 days, remembering and cherishing all the lovely people I have encountered. ❤️
