POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Before a pattern shows up in a system, it shows up in a body.

Movement for the Movement (MVMT) is a movement laboratory where we rehearse the future we deserve. We move on the moon’s schedule because it’s the most honest rhythm we’ve got.

Twice a month we gather to do that training (and un-training). Through dynamic, intuitive movement, we shift patterns of urgency, control, and disconnection into creativity, trust, and real collective power.

Sharing the whole schedule through December so you can make the space to drop in and move with us. We meet up at 9aPST/12pEST ⏰

Next up: new moon practice, Aug 12. Full moon practice, Aug 27.

📌Pin this. See you on the dance floor. 💃

Y'all, I did a thing. I wrote a book.

It has been the most honest and terrifying journey I have ever embarked on - a labor of love and reckoning about how I got here and what it means to be truly well in a toxic world.

In American Detox: The Myth of Wellness and How We Can Truly Heal, I grapple with the privilege of wellness, my addiction to perfectionism, who I am beyond whiteness and finding my right role and responsibility in fighting for a future that we all deserve.

My hope is that this book stirs you up. I hope it excavates old and stubborn ground. I hope it makes you curious about what you don’t know and accepting of what you can’t understand. I hope it makes you outraged and also gives you hope. And I hope it calls us all to reimagine wellbeing that enables everyone to thrive.

I had the absolute best time doing this photo shoot with Nick Bradford. When he asked how I wanted to be photographed, I said i wanted to be in the company of the books and authors that inspired me. American Detox is the product of so many teachers and teachings and I'm eternally grateful for how I've been shaped by their wisdom. Some (not all) are pictured here.

American Detox is available for pre-sale and hits the shelves on June 7th!

An erasure poem of District Attorney Matthew Van Houten’s explanation for why the Cornell Seven were not criminally prosecuted. According to the @nytimes the condensed materials sent to the prosecutor by @cornelluniversity campus police were missing Jane’s UNEQUIVOCAL ASSERTIONS that she was raped. What a staggering thing to omit in an investigation. In this poem, I decided to eras parts of the document to re-visibilize Jane’s truth within it.

If you are as outraged and horrified as I am, consider donating to @rainn the nation’s largest anti-sexual violence organization & operator or the National Sexual Assault Hotline.
You can also contact the Cornell administration or join a solidarity protest on October 13th. There’s so much to do, and so many ways to show up for the millions of Janes out there. by @kkellymoves

I know we’re all thinking about what happened at Cornell. But I also can’t stop thinking about Emma Sulkowicz and all the other young women forced to carry that weight. Read my column at the newsletter (link in bio) 💜 by @kkellymoves

THIS is it.

This is to the ones who are willing to go first.

It’s easy to talk about new paradigms. It’s harder to live it. To let your actions demonstrate that you live according to the values of the paradigm you wish to bring forth.

Calling out old paradigms is the easy part if you ask me. And maybe you’re at this point in your journey, and that’s okay.

I am at a point in my life where I have zero interest in calling out anything. Zero at all. I feel like I did that for the first 3 decades of my life.

Maybe that will change at some point. I am not sure.

For now... I am more interested in living what a new way of being looks like. In how I love, parent, serve, teach and relate to the world.

I am not interested in loaning any of my life force to dying paradigms... not even in the form of fighting them.

This also require embracing the courage to be one who is willing to go first. Who is willjng to embrace the friction that comes with walking a new path.

This is the place where all talk becomes useless.

LAST SPOTS FOR ESALEN!
October 12-16, 2026

I’m thrilled to be returning to Esalen Institute for a 5-day movement retreat this fall. The Mythical Body Retreat weaves theory, movement, and experiential practice to reveal the shaping, patterns, relationships, and intelligence that help us understand and navigate the body with more compassion and creativity. It is for anyone who is ready to go deeper in exploring the stories and mythologies that are held in movement, posture, and tension towards greater freedom and expression.

Retreat Details:
🌈 The Mythical Body: Movement for the Movement
