i am a student of embodied liberatory practices: i live in my body and vacation in my mind. i am black nipmuc of irish decent. i am an embodied liberation teacher. i work with individuals and groups who do the work of healing and educating. the aim of my work is to resouce and guide embodied liberation in our relationships and our structures. i believe that a love-based relationship with all of our bodies is essential to all liberation. i approach my work as a guide, supporting and resourcing the developing and deepening of embodied love-based ways of being. i use movement, yoga, breath, reiki, rituals, and ceremony in partnership with the earth elements when i work with individuals and groups.
in my work, i maintain a clear and generative heart and mindset. i rely on the partnership my labor and the labor of those i work with inform our time together. i am deeply committed to care, access, love, spaciousness, and the liberation for all beings- unseen and seen. my commitments are rooted in my black and indigenous identities and traditions. for over 20 years I have been a practitioner of contemplative practices in buddhist and yoga traditions. i have been a fire keeper in the mayan tradition for over 15 years. and for the last 3 years i have been a student and a practitioner of celtic earth based and divine masculine and feminine practices.
Deepening Practice,
Building Community.
