Dance & Movement coaching holds a unique and transformative potential because it connects mind, body, and spirit in a holistic way.
It’s a method that directly engages with how we experience and process our emotions through the body, recognizing that our bodies hold both our past and present stories.
I work with people who want to explore healing through movement and embodiment, especially those engaged in activism, social justice, or who feel disconnected from their bodies. All identities and experiences are welcome here.
Anti-Oppression Framework:
The Political Body: In this space, we acknowledge that "The personal is political". Your body is not a separate entity from the world; it is a living archive of culture, power, and history. To be connected to your body is a radical act of reclaiming what society—through systems like capitalism and colonialism—has taken from you: the right to feel, rest, and exist fully.
Healing Justice, Not Pathologization: My approach is tied to my understanding of healing justice. I reject the idea of "fixing" people, as that concept is rooted in systems that pathologize difference. Healing is not about erasing pain, but about learning to be in relationship with it while walking alongside someone who meets you with compassion and courage.
Active Witnessing: I am not a counselor who just sits silently and nods. I believe that everything intersects, and I am committed to constantly unlearning and acknowledging how systemic power (intersectionality) is present in our session.
