movement educator

what if:
you were to move all the parts
in all the ways?

you were to explore what moves you?
​
you were to get outside and play?
“What do you want to work on today?” During our time together, we’ll build your senses of curiosity, play, self-trust, alignment, and connection to your nature. I craft sessions based on more than two decades of education, mentoring, leading teacher trainings, and my self practice. 

In addition to teaching movement indoors in the tamed world, I guide explorative movement and nature/spirit connection everywhere from urban settings to remote wilderness. 

My style? Well, when I asked my clients to give me a job title, their answers included “movement innovator and people mover”, “extremely well-trained, intuitive, and fun movement mentor”, “science bruja movement genius and uncanny empath good weirdo”, “professional cool tia”, “science-based fairy coach”, and one response was simply 12 emojis. (I still do not have a business card!) 

I use my own movement and nature connection practices to explore play, work with disabilities (including hypermobile Ehlers Danlos Syndrome) and neurodivergence, celebrate being queer, and feel like a fully-alive human. 

I welcome all humans! 

When I’m not working, you’ll find me wandering/hiking the wilderness of the Sky Islands, at home in my garden, or painting watercolors. I live in a 103-year-old casita with my house panthers, Francie and Neely. Despite inflation, our house spirit refuses to pay rent. ​
