Exciting News!

Dance Your Bliss partners up with DailyOM!

DailyOM is a wise and wonderful - resource, offering courses from prominent thinkers all over the globe. We are honored to be one of them!

In DailyOM's on-line course from Deborah King, a noted health and wellness expert, you will learn 8 key lessons to help you recognize and heal your wounds. Healing Emotional Wounds

My students have been sharing that Dance Your Bliss improves the quality of their lives. I appreciate hearing this, because, every teacher needs positive reminders now and again.

Having recently been faced with a multi-layered cornucopia of adversity (too much to name here, but let's just say, the planets were not in my favor), I began to feel the itch and pull of depression tugging at my heels. A feeling I nurtured and knew well through my teens and twenties, I now have far less affinity for this state of being. As I wondered how I might make it through each day, (yes, I too can wallow in moments of self-pity), I realized the great fortune that faced me: I had a bonafide opportunity to test Dance Your Bliss!

Was it really as transformative and healing as so many folks had told me? Could it really improve my entire week? Just one class?? Dragging my heels all the way, I went forth and led a class committed to remaining in my morose state. Try as I might, I could not resist the power of the movement structures, the music, the wisdom of the body.

The very format of Dance Your Bliss changes our psycho-physical state. The combination of movement structures, intuitive guidance, body-wisdom, guided imagery and visioning really works, even if you don't want it to!

I was able to use my experience to see the value of Dance Your Bliss.

So, I am here to say that I am 100% confident that Dance Your Bliss can make a positive difference in your life. Even if you are a professional curmudgeon like me.

My favorite work: Giving therapy sessions...

I can't stop learning. Isn't that what being alive is about?
As I get ready to go to Naropa University in Boulder to present "Embodying the Body's Wisdom and Freeing the Body Ecstatic", I will take with my 16+ years of education, experiential learning, and wisdom from many skilled teachers and mentors.
There is nothing I enjoy more than empowering others to be embodied, love their bodies more, use the wisdom of the body to heal and change their narratives.

Give yourself the gift of supreme emotional wellness, clarity on your life path,
much improved body image, and a wealth of information about your body that will illuminate and surprise you.

Wake Up and Live

 ~wisdom words~

We go beyond the veil of fear,
lighting each other's way.
The holiness that leads us
is within us, as is our home.

~From A Course in Miracles


I was angry for I had no shoes
but then I met a man who had
no feet.

~Chinese saying

Live in the present,
Do all the things that need to be done.
Do all the good you can each day.
The future will unfold.

There is a force within that gives you life -
Seek that.
In your body there lies a priceless jewel -
Seek that.
Oh, wandering Sufi,
If you are in search of the greatest treasure,
Don't look outside,
Look within, and seek that.

- Rumi
