my vision, my dreams
Let me preface this with the following statement: this is a vulnerable explanation of my heart and mind. I have dreams and they are big. I have felt them simmering in my heart since I was a child. I remember sitting in fields of dandelions in Mundelein, IL looking up at the sky craving the power to make a difference. I did not always have the choice (as none of us do) to change the things, people or happenings in my life when I was a child. I see a piece of myself in many of my students. My safe space was always in a dance class where I could drown out the rest of the world and see me. There are many reasons why I do what I do but this is the root of my passion and soul. This is who I am and I feel honored every day that I get the opportunity to speak my mind and dance the way I want to as a nod to all of the women and humans that made it possible for me to have these freedoms.
​
There are simply not enough outlets to workshop and study connection to self, confidence, sex and sensuality from a holistic healing and movement focused lens - that is what I am fostering and creating here in Kansas City and hopefully on global scale someday
​
I truly believe we have a serious disconnect between who we are / what we want and what we are actually doing on a day-to-day basis. If this is true - which I believe it to be so - then why is nobody talking about it?
Just as commercialism will steal your focus to all the addictive goodies they could possibly provide, they will steal your time and energy away from healing, real-time focus, connection to self, connection to your partner, your community and time in nature. I find it imperative that we shift our focus back into our own hands and the only way to do this is to teach ourselves how to again. How to be human, real, authentic and connected to our minds and bodies. Why care more about myself than scrolling instagram? Why care more about what I put into my mind and body than continually being drawn to whatever mass media and society wants me to buy? I am not saying it is all bad or evil but we are living our lives on their desires. They want to make money by stealing our attention and we are mindlessly handing them the keys. That does not mean I do not buy things it just means that I am at a point in life where I am hyper aware of how I vote with my dollar and attention.
What I am saying is that we need to get a better grasp on the reality of the situation in order to truly grow into sustainable and true healing, connection and happiness.
Most people do not know how to listen to their body and mind. Trust me as a nutrition professional most of you do not even know how the foods you consume or the stress that you have is directly impacting the cells in your body and therefore your sustainable wellbeing. Most people don't even know what they really want. I am trying to teach and transform this.
Humanity has developed in extremely amazing ways but this advancement has pulled us further and further away from our natural and animal selves. With every step towards development we paid the price of stepping away from nature, quite and simplicity. We have in lieu forgotten how to properly feed ourselves with food, sex, self-love, kindness, sleep, water, breath, movement, relaxation and simplicity.
When I was 24 I went through a dramatic shift in life and it has been extremely hard for me to find local leaders that would help me through this growth and challenging season - so I had to create it for myself
​
Should you feel compelled or interested I do accept donations to my business and what I do
​
all proceeds will go towards current projects and experiences. Anything from buying knee pads for students in need but cannot afford them to global retreats and potentially investing in a studio space. I have BIG ambitions to grow what I do for the community I am slowly creating.
I want to be able to consistently offer a healing place for anyone to come and find a sustainable place of connection to self and confidence.
​
I love what I do but I am a one woman show, I would love to someday have a team, an office, a building ... I currently work 2.5 full-time jobs to sustain what I do. Every penny turns right back around into my business.
I hope someday I can fully focus on my passions and people - this is my goal, this is my heart, this is my ambition
