My dance career and motherhood overlapped with perfection. It was a tightly choreographed transition. Our dancers’ contract clearly stated we were required to give a full year notice if we intended to leave the company for any reason. That might sound unreasonable, but it made sense from the inside. There were tour dates and an Opera in the works scheduled two to three years out. That timeline was stressful for all of us, life outside of the Trisha Brown Dance Company didn’t always align.

Individual Thriving

When learning is individualized, we feel seen - and that sense of being seen empowers us to know how to advocate for ourselves. This belief has been a through line in all the hats I've worn in my professional life - educator, performing artist, parent, and clinical somatic educator.

Yoga is a somatic modality, as such, it is a powerful practice in facilitating change and awakening

Knowing that there is always more to discover is another gift of my personal somatic and meditation practice.
