Another beautiful summer dancing with Bill Evans! I have been studying and dancing with Bill since 2006, and demonstrating for him since 2010. This year, I was honored beyond honored to teach the daily modern technique classes in his annual summer workshop for dance teachers. I believe so strongly in the transformative power of his technique, and it was pure joy for me to teach teachers this week!

I finally did it. I read my first book in almost three years. It took me that long after my daughter was born to find my way back to this routine. Postpartum struggles are so real, and it really does take time to find balance again after childbirth. I saw Memoirs of a Geisha in a little free library and on a whim was compelled to read it because I remember it being so popular. Such a beautiful story about destiny and acceptance.

Well, I guess I’m a little bit famous 🤷‍♀️

So excited and humbled to be featured in this month’s issue of CITY Magazine! If you know me well, you know that I don’t care about publicity, but the recognition feels really special, and some have told me is well deserved after 23 years in my field.

I love dance. I love yoga. I love being a somatic movement educator. I love supporting prenatal and postpartum clients. I love holistic wellness. I am lucky to have an organic farming husband who grows all the food we eat. I genuinely love and live all of these things, and it is a total honor to be featured in this wellness issue.

BIG thank you to Sydney Burrows for such a beautiful feature on me and my offerings in this community.

Thank you Allison, Molly, and Evan for saying such kind words. And to everyone who continues to spread the word about my classes, thank you.
