MISSION

I am passionate about supporting your health and well-being in the best way possible!

The body is for me a place of discovery and movement is creative expression. I  love to flow and to entrust me to the movement of life and to support others to do the same, while strengthening a positive relationship to the body and the wisdom it holds. 

In many ways I am deeply somatic – experiencing the body less as an object, but l love to listen to its wholeness and quiet and more gentle rhythms and streams. Which connect us to our inner and outer nature.  Healing touch is the other part in my work to nurture and balance well- being of body, mind and spirit. 

For many years I danced and enjoyed the creative expression of movement and play,  always based on listening to the inherent intelligence of the body and its physiology. I had the privilege to study with many good teachers. With Keriac (New Dance), Moving On Center (BMC), Qigong with ASS Institute, Craniosacral Therapy with BodyIntelligence, all the way to traditional Massage Therapy in Canada. 

What feels unique to me is my curiosity about creative expression, the feminine gentleness, and the freeing of our inherent life force. Our body is like a river, undulating, pulsing, breathing and speaking in so many ways. It is a source of joy and beauty, continually renewing and informing us. If we start to tune into these rhythms, we quickly unite with our inherent health and a more balanced and deeper connection to life.
