Whether you're a seasoned mover or brand new, this is a welcoming space.

Based in Greenfield, MA, I've taught and performed across USA, Canada, Costa Rica, Mexico, Europe and Israel. My teachings emphasize the importance of cultivating a deep and embodied sense of presence, as well as developing a compassionate non-judgmental relationship with oneself. My workshops and classes offer a space for individuals to explore movement and embodiment in a supportive and non-competitive environment, and are open to people of all ages, backgrounds, and levels of experience. Over the last 15 years in my desire to integrate communication and intimacy skills in teaching and life I have studied Non-violent communication, Tantra, Butoh, Byron Katie's "The Work" and Betty Martin's "Wheel of Consent". I have been both a teacher and a board member at Earthdance Retreat Center in Plainfield, MA where I co-directed the Touch&Play Festival for 6 years. I am a featured dancer in Sanford Lewis' documentary film about CI "An Intimate Dance." I also design and moderate the international Contact Improv resource website www.contactimprov.com\ _______________ COVID PROTOCOL - ๐—ก๐—ข ๐—ฉ๐—”๐—–๐—–๐—œ๐—ก๐—”๐—ง๐—œ๐—ข๐—ก ๐—ฅ๐—˜๐—ค๐—จ๐—œ๐—ฅ๐—˜๐—— - ๐—™๐—ฅ๐—˜๐—˜ ๐— ๐—”๐—ฆ๐—ž๐—ฆ ๐—”๐—ฉ๐—”๐—œ๐—Ÿ๐—”๐—•๐—Ÿ๐—˜ ๐—”๐—ง ๐—˜๐—ฉ๐—˜๐—ก๐—ง - Hand sanitizer as you enter - Sign-in sheet for contact tracing - Well ventilated space - Speak boundaries & preferences in opening circle - Do not attend, if you have any symptoms or if you have been exposed to someone with COVID within 3 days of the event. _______________ INFO/QUESTIONS: [email protected] 413.475.2651
