EXPRESSIVE DANCE CLASSES:



Have you noticed that your dancing experiences
are similar to your relationship experiences?


Would you like to stay completely connected with yourself
while freely and spontaneously relating with others?


These classes gently and safely invite you to explore and experiment with new ways of relating to yourself and to others. I invite curiosity and discovery, both individually and as a group body, of new options for self-expression, partnering, and group engagement using touch, movement, voice and play. I model options for expression and connection through my personal example, and by directly engaging you. I welcome your whole self, and encourage you to expand while being easy, being playful, and having fun.

One of my guiding principles is inclusion:
Consider yourself included, no matter what.


Movement sharing body weight is included in our interactions, so you can explore contact dance and partner movement safely through gentle, mindful experimentation.
