I have been a certified teacher of Skinner Releasing since 2001, and the On-Going syllabus since 2011, training with Joan Skinner in Seattle, WA.

I also introduce interested folks to facets of Amerta movement, an approach to growing our sensitivity and sense of place in nature and the landscape. I studied Amerta with Suprapto Suryodarmo over five years, in Indonesia and Europe.

I am also a bodyworker offering individual sessions. What wants to be heard, what may be longing to be known? In session, we can go to these other layers.

Influences informing me: developmental movement, embodied embryology, and the School for Body-Mind Centering©; Material for the Spine exercises; Rolf Movement/Structural Integration©; Kisik Lee’s shot system; Focusing partnership; inclusive dance pedagogy; and many years of research, rehearsal, and performance with radical dance artists. I earned an MFA in Dance from the University of Texas, Austin, and am a Registered (ISMETA) Somatic Movement Therapist and Educator. I am a former Fulbright scholar (Dance, Indonesia) and currently a student of biodynamic craniosacral therapy.
