Every version of you! Welcomed home on the dance floor. Celebrated. And explored fully so we may find ourselves restored once again. 

Our dance is our opportunity to release and transmute all that we’ve experienced in this Earth body. To come to our movement practice in full honesty. So that we may move through it all. Every subtle layer. Every version of self so deserving of expression.

A time and space for you to be with your body and your dance in new ways. To feel a deepened sense of connection to yourself and all of existence. To remember that we are ALL dancers and having a body is a blessing. We get to dance our thank you’s into the sky. 

We will be gathering north of Powell River on the way to Lund. Dancing together on the beautiful Tla’amin Territory. It is a tremendous blessing to move with you here. by @alightinthewoods

Salt Spring Island!!

I am so over the moon excited to offer this 6 week hip hop + embodiment dance journey this fall. This is a dance series that we will building over the full 6 week journey together. 

This is an opportunity to drop in with your body once a week, learn a piece of choreography that explores movement storytelling over the entire 6 week journey. And experience your authentic expression as a result. Each class will be building off of the last. A story created through dance. An experience of possibility on the dance floor. This movement is created to have you leaving the studio each week feeling inspired! The steps will be broken down keeping accessibility in mind and for you to experience the power of ritual repetition. As we continue week to week, muscle memory will become apart of the practice. And you will experience the connection between mind & body that we will create together. Connect to your spine! Feeling the power of your feet! And the ability to create worlds when you dance out a story!

And there will be time at the end of every class to experience your natural movement while being guided through a soulful dance exploration practice. A chance to expand your movement vocabulary and feel more connected to your body in the day to day. I will be sharing foundations and ways to build your dance out from the bottom up. You’ll get to experience your dance in a whole new way and embrace the uniqueness of the way your body wants to express.

Being on the dance floor with other humans feels like a gateway straight into connection with what truly matters. Touching our aliveness. And all that it means to be who we are in this life. Experiencing the movement that pours forth when our bodies experience the diversity of rhythms. The natural expression that carries worlds within worlds. Our ability to feel so interconnected to people we may never share words with but our bodies are exchanging so much dialogue. The meeting place of spirit & matter. Soul & form. The remembrance that we were always meant to dance. To celebrate. To commune. To praise and send our thank you’s into the sky. To feel our ability to recreate and reimagine ourselves again & again & again & again.. 

Our dance practice to me is sacred ground. The place of returning. A homecoming and a reclamation. A divine recalibration of our cells and for me, the most natural feeling. To dance in community is everything. 

It is an honour of a lifetime to create these dance floors together!!

Saskatoon!!

My heart is feeling all the way lit up about coming to the lands of endless skies! I love the prairies and I’m so excited to groove out with this community. I had some requests for a children’s class (I taught kid’s hip hop for many years and it’s my absolute joy to create a Journey to the Temple style class for your lil ones. Learning through play and getting a chance to dance it up together!)

Friday September 11th

A dance experience created for the human heart to fully feel into the human body. The more we experience ourselves from the inside out; the more we get to show up as who we truly are. Our dance practice is our pathway into deepened states of connection with our soul. A place where the structures and demands of the outside world can dissolve and we can feel into our internal experience. This workshop is for you to explore your movement in two ways. Learning a piece of uplifting hip hop choreography. And a dance journey where you will have the opportunity to give yourself to the dance. All guided. Spirit led.

Dancing together is the most natural thing we can do. Whenever I am fully immersed, all the way in, pouring sweat on a dance floor with other humans- all realigns in my being. Because song & dance is how we’ve always prayed. It’s a representation of loss of culture for us to not believe we can sing or dance. Because those with intact lineages have always been raised with this felt sense knowing. The way you experience music. The way your body naturally responds to it, is it. How I guide is a window into your natural ability to express yourself authentically through movement. We train in rhythm and isolations so that we can find sweeter and deepened pockets of expression. But Journey to the Temple is all about reverence for the body and all it does. And claiming our inheritance on the dance floor. You were born to dance!!!

Soulful guided dance journey 

We dance to find ourselves in time & space. To return to who we truly are. Beneath the layers of masks and expectations. Our dance practice is the most honest place. Mirroring back so much about who we truly are. And when we find the pocket of dancing as ourselves, we get to experience a felt sense of reclamation. This workshop is devoted to the human experience. Created to have you feeling connected to all aspects of your humanity. And be reminded of the miraculous nature of your very existence. We dance to return. We dance to pray. We dance because we are ALIVE.
