Embodied mindfulness
“It’s the most effective support for a mindful practice that I’ve ever encountered. It's bringing it out of the head and into the body, into truly being present instead of just thinking about being present.”
“Both my sister and another friend said they were impressed that I looked & moved so gracefully. I had never been told that in the past! I really think it is the movement techniques my body is learning from you. I am now aware of moving from my pelvis, down and up. What a difference in the ease of that!”

"It's really exciting - how I'm not straining the muscles, which I've never been able to do before. It's amazing how it's a whole paradigm shift, because I know you've said it, but experiencing it - this is a whole different strength.
And it works with trauma healing because it's a intimate sense of safety. So like you said, total reorientation toward the world. And that's something you can't coach ahead. You can't fake it. You have to feel it. I can try to think myself through it but I have to actually have that experience."
"Every step feels lubricated, and my spine is elongated …, a situation I never thought I’d see.
I came to you with a lot of experience - years of yoga training as well as movement and postural analysis studies. However no teacher has ever made me understand like you have that the whole body could be brought into a coherently linked unit that moves more effortlessly, powerfully and painlessly at the same time."
“It's such a gift. I feel like most of my life I've cut out the communication from my body because I had things I had to get done. And I was feeling too much, in too much pain. But now I’m really in this dialogue with my body and it's so inspiring. I don't need to work so hard. It's all about connections and it's really priceless.”
