ABOUT ME

I'm a Dance/Anthropology major. I dance for two dance companies a modern company and a Traditional Balinese dance company as well. I enjoy studying ALL cultures. I'm always wanting to learn more and more especially things relating to dance.

PHILOSOPHY

I like to stay open and experience many things and let what works for me naturally gravitate to me.

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I've been studying cultural dance since i was 16 years old. It all started when i saw an Afghan dance performance, since then I've study every form of dance i could and I have taught a few. I had a non for profit at 17 years old and co taught Algerian, Saudi Arabian and a myriad of middle eastern dances. I also have been a jewelry artist since my teens working at first with feathers and gems, in the last few years I've been designing and making headdresses based on traditional Asian designs. I have a good amount of knowledge in yogic practices such a Raja yoga and yoga nidra and have lived at and studied in ashrams. I love to share the knowledge I've acquired over the years. I can't think of anything i love more than a nice stimulating conversation over a nice cup of coffee of a glass of wine in good company.

Ce que j'aimerais partager avec mes hôtes

I'm a very respectful person, the connections i make with people are important to me. My whole life I've seen friendship as a beautiful gift. I can offer my friendship and attention.
