Today, I had the immense joy of supporting a client in an ending ritual to our work together. We spent time reflecting on where he`s been, what`s shifted in his life and revisited all the tools he`s gathered over our time together.
We explored and developed a series of body-based techniques, artistic inquiries, visualizations and cognitive approaches. In "a summary of summaries", we made space for past hurts to be witnessed and tended to, for old beliefs to surface and be curiously explored, for current stagnation to be held compassionately and for feelings and thoughts to be openly sensed. As we re-capped today, he expressed how this holistic toolbox brings "joy at not being so powerless".
I love my work deeply, and not a day goes by when I am not humbled, in awe and so proud of the courage that sits before me (in that empty chair ;-))
💌If you`re curious to learn more about my integrative coaching approach, DM for a no-cost preliminary chat
🐕 And big love to Indie who`s naturally fallen into the role as my sidekick since the day I adopted him, one year ago.

My favorite definition of permission is “to make possible”.
And this, my dearest you, is what I have come to realize is one of the gifts I organically have to offer you.
Whether we are on the Saturday night x-dance floor, in an individual coaching session or in a workshop, my intention is - to make possible.
To make possible with curiosity, non-judgement and an open heart.
To know that your most brilliant aliveness, your creativity and agency are all unlocked by making it possible.
✦
Dance x Music are my most potent ways in. What are your favorite ways into permissive places in yourself? Within your relationships? Please share in the DM’s!

Metamorphosis is open to anyone who is curious about their addictions or compulsions, whether you are exploring this topic for the first time, have intimate knowledge of your patterns, experienced in recovery or not.
This retreat is based on the special and specific format of KIX, an addiction recovery project born out of my long personal history of (multiple) addictions and professional work.
🎨 For our investigation together, we will use tools of:
5Rhythms Dance
Creative acts of catharsis
Games and sharing
Visualizations, drawing and writing
🚂 Held in the beautiful Seminarhof Drawehn with delicious food, comfortable beds, a special studio to hold our process and a sauna to integrate.
💎 If finances are what holds you back, please let me know and we can work something out together.
💢 Special Retreat Take-aways
In addition to the rich retreat experience and the connections formed, you will receive:
A Resource Guide – a compilation of all the exercises and any theory to easily refer back to again and again.
Group Integration Sessions – 2 group integration sessions take place after the retreat to allow space for integration, group support, processing and sharing
It is not just what ‘happens at a retreat’ that paves our way for healing but how we integrate it into our daily lives. It is a joy to host these group integration sessions post retreats which deepens possibility for lasting change, and connection among everyone

About Harvest x-dance
Erntedank is a German word (I recently learned) to encapsulate the end of harvest – a time of celebration and a gratitude to what the summer brought (or didn’t). This year’s “Erntedank” falls on October 5, therefore, what a beautiful opportunity to take this vibration and curiosity into our dance together on the Saturday.
Harvest x-dance will offer a variety of creative ways to explore your personal theme of “thankfulness”. Alongside the main 5Rhythms wave there will be optional spaces to bring this investigation to life.
We’ll let our thinking minds be still, and bring aliveness and curiosity to through the body :
What did these summer months offer me?
Can I make space for appreciation, even if it wasn’t as “planned”? Or that I might have “tried hard” for something?
What could celebration look like in real and true way for me?
Did I receive any unexpected gifts? Even if the “harvest” wasn’t as expected?

An unnameable energy these days. Something that`s a combination of sad-angry-exhausted-hopeful-playful-exasperated-done-alive-lost.
So, I got myself a prop (chair) to give me an object to relate to, for my energy to "be met" in a different way than the wide open space.
The recording of my experiment got cut short with Indie (my dog-creature-companion who still doesn`t really get my dances). I share it with you anyway, a mid-breath pause .........

When I heard Berlin Nocturnes perform their live poetry and music "The Er0t*c Album", my whole body was vibrating. The sounds and the words were at once deeply sensual, vulnerable, a huge turn on, funny and seducingly wise.
I was yearning to get up from my chair and move along with them - and fast forward to now .....
This Saturday (Sept 27), we are co-creating a deliciously sensual space for you.
First, I`ll lead you through a 5Rhythms Dance to guide you into your body x breath x heart and the space with each other.
Then, Berlin Nocturnes will take us on a journey 🍯 💦 🍆 🍑
Each poem in The Erotic Album was written from a different part of the body — fingers, tongue, penis, heart. Accompanied by live piano, electric guitar, a soundscape of rolling waves to pulsing heartbeats, and scent, every note offers a new flavour of the erotic.
Sometimes surreal, sometimes playful, often curious, soulful and powerful.
With deep bass, tender piano tones, and sensual soundscapes, this live set invites the erotic to resonate through your body — one part at a time.
Come, let your body speak.

as we close in on 2 years of the P@lestinian G3n0cide and I return from the latest fundraiser I had the honor to co-host ...... some sharing .....
it has indeed been a painful 2 years. Much in my inner world imploded and then needed mass re-calibration in October 2023.
Much of my outer life changed too.
Re-connecting to my Palestinian roots and an open heart. To let the pain and rage and sense of powerlessness alchemize me. There is not a day that goes by where I am not deeply affected by the g3n0cide. I am understanding agency and freedom of choice for myself in a whole new way.
More and more, I witness and support clients in their own pain, rage, fear, powerlessness and empowered action. Moral Injury is a real thing, and for those with the courage, willingness and resources to witness and stay present to the m@ssacres, media misrepresentation and incorrect information .... moral injury is a deeply painful initiation - hearts broken open.
One huge gift has been an expansive community that is yearning to bring awareness, healing and also raising funds for the people of Gaza. It is a way to be in my agency with my offerings of music x dance x aliveness to raise our hearts, our prayers, our vibrations - and our actions - to the people of Palestine and in movement to freedom.
Thank you to the latest fundraiser in New Mills for Medical Aid for Palestinians (MAP) ..... It was their first ever Ecstatic Dance and what a dance it was 🇵🇸🌈🕊️🤍
Keep D A N C I N G, keep P R A Y I N G, keep your A G E N C Y alive.
and please DM if you would like to collaborate on any fundraisers for the people of G@z@ and the rest of P@lestine.

KIX Retreat: A 5Rhythms Dance × Addiction Recovery Journey
From October 30 – November 2, join us at the serene Seminarhof Drawehn (just 2 hours from Berlin) for a weekend of movement, creativity, and resourcing.
KIX is my heart project that was born out of my exploration of the insidiousness and pervasiveness of my multiple addictions and working with others on meeting and releasing theirs with compassion, cuorisity and non-shaming. My personal journey has led me to this work - a unique program to lead a fulfilling and addiction-free life - and is an immense honor to pass it forward.
“We can only keep what we give away”.
This space is open to anyone who is curious about their addictions or compulsions, whether you are exploring this topic for the first time, have intimate knowledge of your patterns, experienced in recovery or not.
Please feel free to reach out with any questions prior to registering. If you would like to participate but are unable to afford the costs, please contact me too!
