Meet Jennifer

Registered Movement Facilitator

Registered Yoga Teacher of 20 years

I am a Movement Educator and Dance Artist. I specialize in somatics as a pathway into movement education and expression.  I work in the artistic field of contemporary dance and the wellness fields of yoga and qigong.  I am a teacher's teacher with a holistic approach to movement, dance, and traditional healing practices.  I practice, teach and study from a somatic framework.

 

A somatic framework involves exploring pathways into the body and recognizing it as a resource for both healing and creative expression. It is the internal, felt sense of openness, stability and rejuvenation that guides our movement choices, while still executing technique.

​

I have dedicated my life and career to the field of holistic somatic movement and this has been my approach  as movement educator and dance artist of two decades.

All forms of life depend on movement. When we encounter stress, our natural response is to move. Somatic movement elevates our physical and mental health, our relationships and our connection to ourself. Somatic embodiment is the moment by moment attentive response to our needs. 

 

A somatic approach to life "... is as process of self discovery that allows you to experience your body from the inside out.... and a way of knowing the body through the body."  Thomas Hanna
