MIND/EMOTION/BODY INTEGRATION

Breath-Movement-Sound

 

The exercises & explorations are fun and at same time deepen Self Awareness & Wellbeing. The discoveries made through this Somatic Processing can serve as a powerful gateway for growth & healing. Furthermore, these awareness explorations can be extremely useful for those in traditional Psychotherapy, as they allow people to identify and verbalize the unseen or unprocessed experience that has been stored in the body.

WHERE IT BEGAN

performing arts

​

It was through movies that I saw conflicts confronted and characters pursue their passion for life against all odds. Whether a character succeeded or failed, growth always occurred. In hindsight, I can see this is what fueled my passion to act, dance, direct and teach, as I saw performing as a powerful voice to make a difference in the world and hopefully make it a little better place.


Today, my life’s work has expanded beyond the performing arts as people of all walks of life benefit from these transformational movement awareness tools that I studied and now teach. They bring down defenses, open our hearts and empathy to self and others in this crazy and brilliant thing called life.
