give me laugh lines and wrinkles…
i want to leave this place knowing
i did something with my body other than trying to
make it look perfect
- rupi kaur
I love dancing, spirituality, and welcoming the feminine ways of knowing.
I facilitate movement classes, and offer spiritual direction. In this dance of life, my experience of the Divine continues to grow more loving and expansive.
My BA is in Religious Studies and I spent much of my career as a choreographer and dance teacher. Then after years of full-time mothering, these fields of study, work, and life experience have integrated into an embodied spirituality. I am trained as a spiritual director through Benet Hill Monastery, and as an Awaken the Dance instructor through Awaken the Dance Teacher Training. For much of my adult life, spiritual direction has been a place of belonging for me as my faith shifted, wavered, and deepened. The practice of intuitive movement has returned me to myself, to my body as sacred.
I am a friend, partner, mother, adoptive parent, community activist, feminist, aspiring calligrapher, wannabe naturalist, and lover of books, bread, birds, and trees.
