ABOUT ME

Lets keep this as a 'quick start' manual, so here's a bit of something about me...
Usually I'm doing something that involves nature, art and movement. Curiosity, personal development, the enjoyment of sharing with others are among the things that drive my explorations into movement practices, science, and massage. You may find me listening at least as much as I'm talking, if we're not enjoying the silence, so I'm easy.

PHILOSOPHY

Manifesting harmony within myself, the other, community, and nature.

Music, Movies, and Books

Carl Sagan's "Cosmos" (science, cosmology), and the James Burke's "Connentions" (history) PBS series. "The Wire" (urban drama) HBO series.
Rabindranath Tagore's "Fireflies" (poem couplets).
Currently reading "Simplexity" Jeffery Kluger is researching recurrent patterns that happen throughout nature and how simplicity and complexity are a matter of perspective.
"On Being Certain, Believing You Are Right Even When You're Not." An excellent book by neurologist Robert A. Burton that delineates the feeling of being certain as compared to actual knowledge.

Music, massage, language, are parallel forms of expressing feelings and ideas, all of which I've great appreciation for. So a wide variety of good music is an essential for me, as an emotional catalyst or an informational tool.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A short one- During a full moon night on Kaui'i, the oldest island of the Hawaiian chain, I stood on a cliff between to valleys. The width being no wider than the length of my body, with a sheer drop of 1 kilometer below... whouuu, serious adrenaline, couldn't sleep so well that night!
