As I sit here writing this “about me” section, I am flooded with so many parts of myself coming online, wanting you to know them all. 35 years of uncovering, discovering & embodying who I currently am. For now, I’ll stick to what feels the most relevant & we can get to know each other along the way.
I consider myself a deep lover of all thing’s life. An extrovert who has been blessed with the lens of gratitude & finds joy in just about anything. A child of the Earth, a wild woman who feels the primal call so deeply within that I’m still uncovering what that means. What I do know are the things that light me up the absolute most - expressive dance, fitness instructing, cooking with foods of the Earth, herbalism, being surrounded by the vast beauty of Central Oregon & deepening my path of service through helping women reclaim their innate power.
Life these days is pretty stunning, but this hasn’t always been my path. While I reside in a joyous state of being most of the time, I’ve also faced challenges that have sculpted me into the woman I am today.
Throughout my teens & 20’s, I used to hold so much anger in my body from my childhood experiences that it would show itself in a multitude of different ways. Primal rage release has been one of the most cathartic ways to release this suppressed anger, grief & sadness. It has created so much space in my body for presence, peace & healing.
I also used to suffer from pretty extreme body dysmorphia which led to many failed attempts at starving myself, feeling even worse when I’d cave in & eat. I got my first gym membership & nutritionist at 20 years old which completely changed my life! It gave me the knowledge I needed to alter my movement & eating patterns in a really healthy, sustainable way. 15 years later, I’m still deepening this knowledge & fitness/nutrition is one of my greatest passions.
Lastly, I’ve been dancing since I was 6 years old. It has been my constant, my best friend, my healer & has brought me home to myself over & over again, even when it felt challenging to be in my own body. It’s hard to put into words all it has done for me & shown me over the years, but simply put, it is why I’m here. To dance, to grow, to learn & evolve, then share that with others; share that with you.
These challenges I’ve faced in my past have led to me to this point in time, where I’ve gathered experience + wisdom & can now offer it to women in need. In need of coming home to their bodies through primal expression, physical fitness, intuitive eating & dance, dance, dance. Women who are in need of reclaiming their innate power, wisdom & magic!
