Testimonials:

“I was pleasantly surprised how quickly community developed, and this sense of safety was really key for my deeper exploration in contact improv and authentic movement, both completely new practices to me.” -Moving Freely participant

“The shoulder anatomy lesson and ‘rotisserie heart’ have completely changed how i think about posture and how I carry myself. I've taken some of these concepts and incorporated them… at work. Also, the raspberry squish of the feet helped me really feel how small movements in the feet travel up and affect ankles, knees, and hips….One of my journal entries a few days after the workshop was something along the lines of ‘I'm experiencing the world differently this week’ - i truly felt so FULL and had so much more space to SEE other people and offer genuine kindness without reservation.” -Moving Freely participant

“I connected to my internal experience in a context where I've often been pre-occupied with doing things ‘the most right’ or to please. Being in a new context with new-to-me-people felt refreshing. I got a better feel for the hanging shoulder structure and really returned home through the authentic movement opportunities.” -Moving Freely participant
