Sometimes I catch myself walking through the streets so completely with myself - whether in my mind or heart or special reverence with my body. Other times, I`m drawn into the energy of one person or a group of people around me. These days, I`m in connection with early - very early - morning breeze and the relative quiet of the city.
How often do I choose my degree of connection? How often am I passively pulled by it? And when does the mix between arise?
Let`s dance ....

Longplay was a new experiment borne exactly 1 year ago. One year on from this concept, I recognize that my desire and curiosity for long form remains so palpable.

We begin the evening with a 5Rhythms Wave to arrive into our bodies and into the space together. I`ll then share a few words about this particular album and we`ll drop into the dance of a full album together:
How is it to surrender to the structure of an album?
How might our movements shift or deepen as we immerse into the chronology of tracks, traveling the artistic logic and story?
What arises as we travel with an album composition, or “stick with” this concept, perhaps as a metaphor for life experience?
♥︎ Björk, Debut Album ♥
Perhaps you are called to wear something that this album inspires in you?
If yes - please do so!

Working with couples is a special dance that includes holding the individual experiences, pains, joys and truths alongside the dynamic aliveness of the couple.
While individual healing is, of course, so potent and powerful, there is another flavor of healing that arises when couples step into coaching together - another layer of vulnerability may surface, a kaleidoscope of feelings may emerge, systemic patterns reveal themselves in a unique angle.
Each relationship deserves attention, curiosity and openness to the co-creation of patterns, struggles, hopes, personas .... and I"m so honored to accompany couples on their journeys.
╰┈➤ DM for more info or to schedule a no-cost preliminary chat to feel into how we can work together.
Integrative relationship work for couples who are ready for a process of discovery, empowerment, mutual respect and healing.
Sessions are available online or in person, in Berlin.

hello everyone, tomorrow! - we`ll join together in Manchester for an exploration on "Relating". Join us for the Friday only or the full weekend workshop.

I love treating the dance floor as a laboratory - an experimental space where we get to learn about ourselves and may even choose to explore "something different".
Let this infuse you and your dance community - come dance with us.

Hello Manchester, I`m so honored to be invited back to your lovely 5Rhythms community - this time for a 2.5 day workshop!
in here x out there was first developed to support to Berlin dance community on its ways of relating, to bring (even more) spaciousness to our dance floors. Relating is one of those themes we might have very big or clear ideas about - but what happens when we let go of labels like "introvert" or "extrovert"? What happens when there is no "right" way to relate? Rather, calling on the wisdom of the 5Rhythms map and our bodies to investigate - what is in me right now (in here) x what`s out there within another, group, collective - or even spirit?
DM with any questions or to register.You can also register by emailing: [email protected]
See you there <3

Time and again, I have been reminded of the way Chronic Stress sucks life out of us.
Time and again, I witness glorious souls seeking to break out of survival mode into living life.
Quite frankly, I didn`t even understand there was a difference between "surviving life" and "living life" until my late 20`s.
During CoVID (maybe the full story another time), I became acutely aware of addiction to Stress - the way my system knew how to interact with the world and how a "stress hit" was a strange sort of "high".
Going deep into the exploration myself has allowed me to offer much more to my clients over the last 6 years. After holding a series of small groups and seeing the impact of a mind-body-heart-spirit combination in individual sessions transforms, I put together Wildly Calm - a 28day self-study to disarm stress in daily life.

Please note that this program does not minimize or replace approaches needed for acute stress, continuous traumatic stress or chronic misattunement - to name a few - especially as many of us are feeling the ongoing impact of war, genocide, and escalating violence by "those in power".
