I have been practicing 5Rhythms® dance since 2000 and been teaching since 2004. I am currently studying Process Oriented Psychology and is a Publisher and co-founder of Handspring Publishing, where I work with researchers and prominent teachers in the fields of manual therapy, bodywork and movement. I read and study widely in the area of movement and psychotherapy. I teach from an understanding of the physiology and biomechanics of the body, as well as from a deep personal experience of proprioception, movement and the psyche. My approach in classes is to allow space for what needs to emerge through movement, encouraging freedom and the unexpected into the dance.
