About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Journeying in an ent-like fashion, until I find a place to establish some new roots. Looking for the right location for my future dance studio.

ABOUT ME

I did the whole college and 'travel in Europe by myself' thing; now I'm a new person in a different phase of life. I love spring, warm breezes, dogs, listening. I naturally "create space" for transformation. This often means literally clearing floor space so I can do my dance practice. I love sunshine; I teach Nia holistic fitness classes; I love to swim, I like being one with nature and listening to the quiet lull that the birds and trees and breeze have to sing.

PHILOSOPHY

Be happy, be kind, laugh lots, have fun, and see the beauty in yourself, the world, and others! Why take things too seriously?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've only just begun, but my world-traveler of an older brother met his fiance through couchsurfing...so I thoroughly believe its power!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've seen it in action. My friends and family have done it. I've met many couchsurfers along the way. But I have yet to surf or host someone.

Interests

I like animals, I like movement, I like nature. I'm interested in permaculture, architecture and landscape design.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've done many things, but one of the most amazingly simple ones is beginning again - in each moment we have the chance to forget who we once were, let go of the past and start anew. Easier said than done ;)

Teach, Learn, Share

Learn - Embody - Share: The way through which we as Nia dancers share our routines and choreography. Learn a couple things, exemplify them fully and then teach others. This is the cycle through which all things can be best expressed. Stay curious. Find health through movement. Self-heal. Breathe. Hear the musical vibration of every moment.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have a bit of background in conscious communication and I'd love to hear about your life and share about my own experiences!

I can teach you some things about movement and dance or show you some moves. I can help you learn to listen to your own body. I can share my essential oils with you. I can cook up something interesting!
