Let’s work together

Offerings.

From one-on-one work to experiential design on a private event, I look forward to the opportunity to serve you and your community.

 

Move. Feel. Heal.

 

Whether you are looking to find some space in your body, explore something new, or move something old — let’s build just the right dose for a reset or to get things moving.

If you are interested in working together privately, to collaborate on an event and/or facilitating for your small group — don’t hesitate to reach out.

For in-person work, I am located in the Hudson Valley with access to New York City, CT, NJ, and PA.

01 — Guided Movement Practices

During a personal or small group practice, you’ll receive more personalized attention and guidance so you can transform what you are looking to transform.

My Movement Facilitator Stance:

I value authenticity, connection, and encouraging movement and creativity on all levels of the self. I believe our bodies contain the wisdom and intelligence we need, and that co-focused energy and shared space has the power to create positive change and meaning.

My intention is hold the container and provide a non-judging presence and space, to be open and curious *with* you and with what comes up, and to utilize any approach that serves the need based on my years of experience and study.

02 — One-On-One Embodiment Coaching

Get clearer on what your body is staying to you, and what it is speaking to others. We may work around a particular issue or just hold space for something to emerge. We’ll likely do a combination of things (gesture work, some dialogue, breath/feeling, repetitions, etc), but whatever we do, we’ll go slow. These sessions can help you practice how to more consistently BE in your body and use that connection creatively to change your state of being.

03 — Family & Systemic Constellation

I am trained as a facilitator of Family & Systemic Constellation (intergenerational and relational trauma healing) with multiple teachers for the last four years, as well as being in my own process of growth and healing in tandem. I am developing, often in collaboration with Laure Porché, an approach that also brings in elements of movement and creative exploration.

For the past few years Laure and I have integrating the practice of constellations with my unique approach to movement and expression with profound results. We have been facilitating these “Movement Constellations” since 2017 in the U.S. and abroad.

03 — Group Facilitation & Private Retreat

I have been creating and facilitating transformational retreats since 2016 — here and abroad. I’d love to work with you to provide you and/or your group a memorable experience where you can not only slow down, take time to focus on yourself and recharge your batteries, but also walk away with new embodiment tools and experiential practices.

04 — Instructor/Facilitator Mentorship & Supervision

I created Finding Your Freestyle® (FYF) in 2012, a movement and lifestyle enterprise that encourages freedom in movement, expression, creativity and community. I’ve facilitated classes, workshops, intensives and retreats in the FYF methods all over the world, and have fostered a global community who regularly utilize the practices in their own movement, creative endeavors, and life.

As a pole dance and movement teacher with 14+ years experience and tens of thousands of students (from drop-in classes to three month long courses), I can help you develop your approach and skills as a facilitator of groups; class planning and devising, experience design, container building, refining your stance and values, dealing with student resistance, problem solving, etc.

05 — Working with the Tarot & Oracle Decks

Experience deep personal insights and to more support from your decks — whether you are new or currently practicing.

I have 8+ years in the personal study and practice of both Tarot and oracle decks. My style is unique; I utilize these systems not for divination but as a profound tool for contemplation and self-inquiry — often blending it with creative expression, visualization, body-based explorations, and phenomenology.

A personal (or small group) session is a great way to practice, learn new ways to work with your deck(s), ask questions, and also be provided next steps and check-in tools as homework so that the practice continues in enjoyable or meaningful ways.

You are welcome to bring multiple decks for our session. You’ll also want to have a journal nearby, and prepare any ritual tools you work with (like a candle.)

06 — Sound Bath & Sound Healing

Let me come to you! I’ll bring my full set of overtone-emitting tibetan singing bowls and crystal singing bowls, as well as other sound healing and energy-clearing instruments that immerse you and your space in vibration and sound. Can be combined with a mat-based sensual movement practice, meditation, or other creative practices. I love conducting sound baths with my facilitation partner, Jess Linick, who also works with a gong and beautiful chimes.

06 — Other: Multi-Media Workflow & Design

It may seem random on this page, but I also spent the other half of my working life on the computer; designing, writing, editing, and marketing.

I can help you get more comfortable navigating Photoshop, Canva, show you video editing tips/tricks, navigate a new app/program you feel overwhelmed by, or help you devise your digital workflow.

Background that is relevant to this offering: Formely a Creative at Apple, Inc for two years, spending all day training folks in the use of OS and software from amateur to pro. I’m also currently the Creative Director for Body & Pole, and have been an in-house creative for various small businesses since 2007.
