Our August Dance returning to @judsonchurchnyc after 9 months was absolutely incredible! @bergsnfries warmed us up with a beautiful flow, then @camilabenach & @f0xg0ddess dropped us into our bodies with a hybrid set with haunting vocals before @myk2melo brought the funk to make us shake & the Lay Down drifted us away with sweet melody. We’ll be back at Judson October 20th with @ghostpipemusic but First we’ll be joining the @junxionnyc Family at the @junxioncampout September 24-28 at @_moonrisevalley 🏕️ Links to both are in our bio! Can’t wait to dance with you again soon! 📸 @inoa_photo taken in Judson Memorial Church - New York City by @bergsnfries

Extra moment of love for sharing this day with @natanyapetkovic and @gabriela.petkovic 🏔️ To remember this time where we met and supported and accepted each other in a very vulnerable experience (fear of sliding down the mountain) with love and joy and gratitude. by @bergsnfries

The second day of my five day trek through the mountains boarding Albania and Montenegro was my toughest. I walked from Valbona to Çerem through the Persllopi Pass. The day started out idyllic and traversed through more than five hours of snow. The sky was pure blue and the sun was hot, while our feet were wet with cold snow.

Over time, the snow became incredibly challenging, with slippery and steep moments, and from the sheer quantity and distance. I was able to get through it safely and confidently thanks to a beautiful connection with @natanyapetkovic and @gabriela.petkovic, two sisters I met on the trail. We started the day with the most perfect lunch (this is girlhood). Through the snow, Natanya offered guidance from her high altitude treks in Nepal, and Gabriela was kind, calm, and uplifting. We stayed positive and grateful the entire time.

Going into the trip, I was very worried about snow being beyond my hiking skill set. I read many accounts online warning travelers to stay away or hire a professional guide. I didn't do either and inundated @cwruby and @jamiegalleyfried with questions about hiking in snow, if I was doing something too risky. Jamie said, "you got this, it may be hard but you’re fit and experienced." Without this encouragement I might have missed this life affirming experience from fear.

I also want to thank @kimberly.llee for gifting me the microspikes I used on this trip. I went into this day as a solo hike, but did it with support I am deeply grateful for. by @bergsnfries

I went to the mountains to hike the Peaks of the Balkans trail. I hiked five days in total, crossing back and forth between the boarder of Albania and Montenegro.

The full Peaks of the Balkans trail walks a loop through Albania, Montenegro, and Kosovo and takes ten days. The trail was established in 2012 through a joint effort of all three countries and a German development organization to encourage collaboration and cross-boarder unity. Each leg of the trail takes hikers through the mountains from one village to the next.

Day one: Theth to Valbona in Albania. This is a stunning walk and the most busy as many people do this as an overnight trip. But the trail gets more spectacular from here.

I embarked on this journey as a solo trip and connected with different people along the way. My goal for this trip was to see beautiful nature and take myself on the type of experience I want to have in my life. Throughout the walk, I gained confidence in my ability to walk long and steep trails, seek support from other hikers, and make decisions for myself.

Special thanks to @riddlerose for guiding me in route planning, @cwruby & @jamiegalleyfried for encouraging me not to be afraid of hiking through snow (much more snow will be shown in subsequent days), and @kimberly.llee for gifting me microspikes (essential for said snow). by @bergsnfries

I had a lil solo Euro summer trip and I'm going to post about it like it's 2016. First stop: Riga, Latvia for a few days.

Riga is a dreamy city where the sun sets at 10pm in the Spring. I loved the Art Nouveau architecture and open sky.

Latvia has a long history of occupation by the Russian Empire and communism. Nonviolent resistance that occurred there under communism feels all too relevant today. taken in Latvia by @bergsnfries

@dance.beyond campout year four is coming up June 12 - 15. Here are some disposable film camera photos from last year. While the photos may leave you wondering, "what is happening here?" I hope they also show how sweet it is to dance freely in nature together. If you are considering joining and have questions ask me! This is a really special gathering. I hope to see you on the dancefloor under the sky and trees 👣 ticket link in my bio. taken in Camp Timber Trails by @bergsnfries

I hiked alone and enjoyed dismissing all the concerned men along the way. Being alone in nature offered a powerful opportunity to observe my own reactions to obstacles with no interference from another person. What bothered me and what didn't? It was for me to decide. by @bergsnfries
