Welcome to explore your inner and outer nature through movement. Where the power of nature meets the intelligence of the body. Deepening the connection to the elements through embodied movement and expression.

The intention is to experience how each element supports our body and dance, and to notice what unfolds when their different qualities are allowed to coexist and interact through movement.

The elements are known as resources in most cultures as in many indigenous traditions, in yoga and in shamanic practice, as well in the maps of the 5Rhythms:

Flowing – we listen to the gravity, support, stability and weight of Earth

Staccato – we awaken the pulse, power, direction and heat of Fire

Chaos – we soften and surrender into the depth and ways of Water

Lyrical – we embody the lightness, spaciousness and freedom of Air

Stillness – we weave the wisdom of awareness and integration of all the elements in Ether

Moving with the language and landscape of the 5Rhythms element map is direct, profound, instinctive and real. It’s a way to align with aliveness and reconnect, heal and empower our body, mind and heart.

Fascial Flow®
Is a dynamic and meditative movement practice that opens the body and releases tension in the fascia. A beautiful way to meet the body and create grounding as a foundation for the dance.

I will offer a “dive,” where we connect with the different layers of the body and establish a safe, embodied connection. Through the concept of “push to rise,” from Fascial Flow®, we will explore how to collaborate with the floor/earth—experiencing both support and holding, while receiving energy in return.
