WORK WITH ME

I work 1-1 with people who wish to explore and transform a personal situation and/or cultivate their capacity as leaders in these chaotic times.

Together, we return our attention to the cycles of life and collaborate with the magic that lives within us and around us.

In this process, we follow the ancient map of the medicine wheel, drawing on the energetic teachings of each of the 7 directions. We return to listen to the air, the water, the earth, the fire. We attune our awareness to how these elements vibrate within the body and the mind.
This journey is grounded in intimacy and trust.

Together, we will develop personalized practices for your well being and vitality, setting a path for sustainable transformation.

In this 7 session video course, we walk the map of the medicine wheel through the lens of the menstrual cycle. We explore the cyclicality that lives within our body and outside of it, the endless circle of life, death, and rebirth.

Each session includes a 15-20 minute video, a guided movement meditation and a PDF.

We are all aware that women’s trust in ourselves is repeatedly undermined in patriarchal culture. As a result, we often look outside of ourselves for answers or guidance. 

​

For generations, women have come together to remember the authority of the cycle that lives in our bodies. We have come together to witness and be witnessed by one another, to support and share in deep sisterhood. 

This collective is an invitation to gather together, to dance this dance of life, death and rebirth, in the most embodied way.  Together we are remembering again that the authority that guides us in this life, in this universe, is the cycle that lives in the wombs of the women. 

This collective is for self-identifying women who have completed Cycle. Wisdom. Power. (above) and wish to integrate the language of cyclical attention into their daily lives, in a collective with other women. The group meets in English, though most of the women involved speak English as a second language.

I have taught middle school and high school, and worked with young people aged 5-25 and the ones who guide them in a wide variety of formal and informal educational settings.  I have also coached many educators and facilitators to integrate education for collective liberation into their schools and programs.

I write curriculum for youth and adults for both formal and informal settings, and support educators as they implement an education of the senses that allows for us to remember our human nature.

For as long as humans have walked the earth, we have gathered in ceremony to recognize and celebrate.  

As humans, we have a strong need to belong, to feel a part of something, yet western culture has severed many of the bonds that form the web of community in which we live.

A ceremony is an activity of the community; when we gather with a shared purpose, we reweave that web, and meet one another in the context of our common humanity.  We allow ourselves to feel a sense of community, even with people we are meeting for the first time.

I carry traditional altars that were passed into my hands by my teacher, Carmen Vicente.

Since humans have walked the earth, we have healed and transformed through dance. By engaging our senses through somatic practice, we awaken the awareness of our essential relationship with life. We remember again what it is to be human upon the earth in this time.​

I hold movement spaces in which we explore our communication with the waters that live in us and around us. Click below to learn more. 
 

Since 1997, I have been holding spaces for collective healing for young people and adults. In this time, I have witnessed hundreds of people reclaim their authentic voices and embrace and embody their power. I have integrated this work into public and private schools, outdoor education centers, trainings for educators, summer camps, women’s and girls’ circles, conscious movement spaces, primitive skills gatherings, permaculture courses and many different workshops.

If you are interested in building a custom workshop for your community, email me. I would love to discover what can unfold through our collaboration. 

I am an experienced and compelling speaker and have given hundreds of talks and interviews. I honor the power of the word; as I have been taught, the words we speak are seeds we plant in the heart of the ones who are listening.

Possible topics include:

• Returning to our Humanity

• Leadership as an act of Love

• Grief and Gratitude

• Cultivating intimacy in times of isolation and separation
