My Philosophy:
The greatest of all things one can teach are Love and Faith.
Like anything, they cannot be taught by fear, coercion, proof, or demonstration.
They are simply taught by walking beside you, and holding your hand.
Holistic Spiritual Counseling
And Life Coaching
Allow me to share some of my journey with you...
After teaching dance for 18 years and owning two large dance schools for 10 years, I felt a strong urge for a change in life direction. I became intensely interested in finding out 'what else was out there.'
I have always been one to 'follow my own drummer' and would not easily accept things that didn't feel true to me. I love to ask questions, and my greatest interests in life have been: growing, learning, exploring, and loving, and always evolving towards my inner truth and authenticity.
It was then that I was lead toward pursuing a degree in Metaphysics, as I found it to be a very broad and un-biased spiritual education. During my schooling, just a few of the things I studies included: aspects of many different religions, tribal spirituality, and emotional wellness. Other courses included things such as: dreamwork, ayurveda, yoga, symbolism, and meditation.
Although my degree and ministerial ordination are through a Metaphysical University and Metaphysical Church, I am a freelance minister, and consider myself not even a Metaphysician, but a blend of everything I've studied over the years that I've found to be true and authentic for me.
My theory is that all of life is learning. As we walk our paths, we encounter many things along the way. It is our choice to either pick up these tidbits and add them to our repertoire, or to gracefully pass by them, leaving them for others with whom they will resonate. I choose to honor and respect all paths and faiths built on the desire to foster peace, love, harmony, and unity for all of us.
We are all in this together.
All of our gifts, talents, and unique attributes are what make this world beautiful.
I am honored and energized by assisting others in their quest towards finding and living their inner truth.

Dance and Movement
Although I am no longer teaching classes at the center, I have left this part of my story here to allow for a more ongoing snapshot of my unfolding...
I am currently open to serving as a dance/movement consultant and choreographer, in whatever way that unfolds.
************
After changing life directions, I 'retired' from being a dance studio owner and teacher. I have been on a healing path for about 4 years now, and during that time dance has served as a catalyst, motivator, and healer to me.
It hasn't always been easy. After I burned myself out, sold both my studios, and quit dancing cold turkey for awhile, dance was a very sore spot for me. I still loved it, but it hurt too much to engage in it and with it at times. At times dance and I could be close, at times I had to keep my distance. I had to run away from it for awhile until I was ready to slowly re-engage and begin to heal. There were days I could no longer feel the rhythm, there were days when I'd push through a class or workout on my own or as a student in class, only to break down in tears at the end.
Not all that long ago, I heard a voice in my head say "You will dance again- you need to loose some weight first." Although not as thin as I was when I danced full time- I knew the 'weight' was mostly, if not entirely, metaphorical--relating to healing, emotions, and old toxic baggage that I was carrying. I have lost enough 'weight' to again feel the joy in my dancing and the desire to again pass it on to others.
This time around though, my focus is on joyful movement, healing the body, and wellness for the mind, body, and spirit.
I am blessed and very excited to come back from 'retirement' and share with you my new relationship with dance-which is every growing, ever evolving.
Welcome to a healing space dedicated to discovering the joy, lifted spirits, and many health benefits that dance can offer.
I am blessed to serve as your guide on this journey.
