The yogic practice enables participants to dive deeper into their dance and gain an overall sense of peace.

This enables practitioners to attain awareness and inner stillness in motion.

The Sacred Pause Between Longing and Becoming
There’s a quiet truth many of us are holding right now:

The world feels tender.
Uncertain in places.

And the idea of choosing something expansive, something from home, can stir as much hesitation as it does desire.

And still… There it is.

That subtle pull.
Soft, but persistent.
Calling you toward something more.

I’ve been feeling it too.

In just a few days, I’ll be on a plane to Bali.

Not just to travel, but to be in devotion to studying new dance forms, to make offerings at sacred sites, to teach as transmission, and to reset my body and spirit within a different rhythm of life.

And even after years of answering these kinds of calls, there is always a moment before I go where everything in me softens… and questions.

Is this the right timing?
Should I be doing this now?
Would it be easier to stay?

That edge doesn’t disappear just because you’ve crossed it before.

If anything, it becomes more sacred.

Because you recognize it.
You know what lives on the other side.

If you would like to Continue reading join me in Substack ✨link in bio ✨

Wherever you find your self in this moment this is the work.
To listen deeply
To trust in your North Star 💫

R.M.A Sacred Dance Mentorship 🌹

As we are constantly creating life, we are also continually training our bodies. If you move, dance, and play, this is what your body learns to do. But when we sit still, when we limit our movement, our body learns to stand still.

Our body is our story; our movement is our life. Through movement, we express the fullness of our experiences, our past, present, and everything in between. In each dance, in each step, we embody our unique mythos, the narrative of who we are.

What stories are you expressing through your body?
What stories do you long to tell?

In this immersive 2-day experience, we invite you to connect deeply with your body’s innate wisdom through movement.

Drawing from the R.m.a Method, a powerful combination of Somatic Bellydance, Yoga, and Vitality Practices.
We will explore how our bodies hold the wisdom of our emotional and physical experiences. Every movement you make feeds your body, creating a new story through expression, breath, and release.

Through sacred dance, you’ll be invited to move, create, and become lighter, freeing the stories that no longer serve and awakening new, joyful expressions of who you are becoming.

All levels of experience are welcome.

Light refreshments provided.
Day use of saltwater Pool and sauna access included 🩵
Pre-Registration required.

Together we rise soaring 🦋

“A circle of women may be the most powerful force known to humanity. If you have one, embrace it. If you need one, seek it.
If you find one, for the love of all that is good and holy, dive in. Hold on. Love it up.
Get naked. Let them see you. Let them hold you. Let your reluctant tears fall. Let yourself rise fierce and love gentle. You will be changed. The very fabric of your being will be altered.” – Jeanette LeBlanc.

Resilience, Renewal & Ritual: Honoring the Wisdom of the Wood Snake ✨

As winter deepens here in the Colorado mountains, I’m reminded of the quiet magic of this season—a time of stillness, reflection, and planting seeds for what’s to come. The frozen lakes and snow-covered hillsides invite us inward, into the dreamtime, where rest and renewal hold space for transformation.

This year, as the Chinese New Year and Aquarius New Moon welcome the Year of the Wood Snake 🐍, we are invited to embrace slow, intentional growth. The Snake, a symbol of wisdom and precision, guides us to release what no longer serves and aligns with purpose. Transformation doesn’t have to be swift; it can be deliberate, steady, and profound.

Rituals are our companions on this journey. They offer grounding, balance, and a sacred pause amidst life’s chaos. Whether it’s lighting a candle, taking a mindful breath, or planting a seed, ritual connects us to the rhythms of the Earth and reminds us we are part of something larger.

🌿 I’ve created a simple ritual to help you ground, regulate, and reconnect this season. [Link in bio]

Let this winter be a time to honor stillness, dream courageously, and move forward with grace and intention. Together, we can weave resilience and renewal into the fabric of our lives.

P.s I am wearing all faux fur :)

We all sense it—that deep longing for connection and belonging. At our core, we know we are all interconnected in the great web of life, not separate from nature but part of its sacred rhythms and flow.

The priestess arts help us remember this truth. When women practice these arts together, something powerful happens: we create a collective space to connect, support, and heal.

gatherings remind us that we are never alone. Together, we enter a shared sacred space where judgment fades, stories are honored, and each woman’s unique journey is celebrated.
In this space, rituals, intuitive practices, and healing work are amplified, becoming even more transformative through the collective energy we share.

Practicing the priestess arts in the community fosters a deep sense of belonging—something many of us long for in a world that often pushes us into isolation. It’s a reminder that our strength and wisdom grow when we come together. By holding space for one another, we become mirrors, reflecting courage, truth, and resilience that we might not fully see in ourselves.

This connection also roots us back to nature and the cycles that guide us all. The priestess arts honor the sacred rhythms of life, helping us reconnect with our innate power, worth, and the bond we share with all living things.

When we gather as women to practice these sacred arts, we reclaim what has always been ours: the power of community, the wisdom of nature, and the deep belonging that comes from remembering we are all woven into the same sacred web. This is how we rise—together.

🌙 Do You Feel It?
Under the light of this Cancer full moon, emotions swell—grief, joy, love, impermanence—all rising to the surface.

Can you hear the whisper in your heart? The ancient call of the sacred mysteries pulling you toward something deeper—a connection to your true self, your body, your spirit, and the divine feminine wisdom within?

For generations, the sacred feminine has been silenced, forgotten under the weight of a world disconnected from natural rhythms. But now, the divine feminine is rising, calling you to remember, to reclaim.

As a collective we are being asked to embrace our bodies' wisdom and how deeply connected we are to each other and this earth. This gift has always been here but how do we access and harmonize our energies?

This is your invitation to step into the mysteries through Sacred Dance—a transformative pathway to embodying the divine feminine and aligning with your truest self. Rooted in three sacred pillars, this journey weaves timeless wisdom, sacred movement, and connection to Earth’s rhythms:

✨ Sacred Somatic Belly Dance
Awaken your body’s innate wisdom and align with nature’s cycles through healing, empowering movement that connects you to your feminine essence.

✨ Vitality Practices
Cultivate energy, strength, and balance with breathwork, meditation, and practices that restore harmony to body and soul.

✨ Priestess Arts
Step into the mysteries of ritual and ceremony, awakening sacred leadership and weaving divine feminine wisdom into your life.

Together, we’ll create a sacred space for healing, transformation, and connection—aligning with life’s rhythms, awakening the magic within, and reclaiming the ancient wisdom that is already yours.

✨ Let’s Dance, Pray and Sweat our Tears ✨

Psssst wanna know a secret?

I am in the process of writing a book.
It’s about Womens Vitality ,Priestess Arts , Daily Ritual and so much more.

Its potent to share this commitment as I nurture the creation of this project.
I have been taking time to slow down and not rush the process.
It’s a deep dive around understanding creative flow states and how to release the deep conditioning of how not quantify ones value based on our productivity.

It’s takes great devotion, discipline and skills of time management to embark on most projects.
Especially the ones that are so dear to your heart.

But I find most of all it takes heart presence. Allowing myself to rewrite and rewire my relationship with my souls work birthing through the hyper mudane work into daily action steps that are inspired and held in devotion.

Each day I begin with a simple gratitude ritual that flows into a morning movement practice.

For my process I feel most nourished by the ocean, and the jungle mountains.
Nature is my greatest teacher and immersing my body into the elements for long swims and hikes grounds me to the earth.
Here I am free to be my wild self and when In this natural state, this allows my nervous system to calm and for my creative ideas to flow.

💎Daily mantra
Walk gently
Take no more than you need
Give back with a generous heart
Speak up for the animals and those who’s voices are suppressed.
Be a conduit and dance everyday
Give gratitude as each breath is a blessing.
