Embodied Practice


What lives in the body doesn’t always have words. Sometimes healing requires a different language -one spoken through breath, through sensation, through the quiet intelligence of tissue and bone. This work happens at the crossroads where soma meets psyche meets spirit, where movement becomes medicine and stillness becomes transformation.

Drawing from yoga, somatic practices, breathwork, meditation, mindfulness and contemporary dance these sessions honor the body as both the keeper of our stories and the pathway home. Over a decade of teaching and trauma-informed practice have taught me that we can’t think our way out of what we need to feel our way through. The nervous system speaks its own truth. Fascia holds memory. Breath creates possibility.

This isn’t about achieving poses or mastering techniques. It’s about learning to inhabit yourself differently -to feel what’s been frozen, to move what’s been stuck, to create enough safety that truly allows you to heal and thrive.


Offerings

Group Sessions

Weekly gatherings that make room for individual experience within collective practice. These classes weave together somatic and restorative approaches, breathwork, meditation, and movement that follows the body’s own rhythms rather than prescribed forms.

What we’re after here is regulation, the kind that happens when the body remembers it’s safe to rest, when breath deepens without force, when you can feel your edges without needing to defend them. The practice lives in the space between effort and surrender, between what you think you should do and what your body actually needs.

Some days that looks like long holds in yin shapes, letting gravity work on fascia while breath works on everything else. Other days it’s fluid movement, the kind that helps complete what got interrupted. Always, it’s an invitation to listen closer.

Weekly Schedule:

Tuesday & Thursday Mornings: 9:45am

Friday Mornings: 8:30am

Location: Soltnse Hot Yoga


Individual Sessions

One-on-one work designed around your nervous system, your history, your current capacity. We start where you are -whether that’s rebuilding trust after injury, learning to tolerate sensation after years of numbing, or deepening practices that already serve you.

The work pulls from multiple traditions: yoga adapted to what your body can actually do rather than what it “should” do, somatic techniques for processing what’s been held, breathwork that ranges from gentle regulation to deeper release, functional movement that rebuilds connection between intention and action. We work with what emerges, not against it.

Sessions address:

• Restoring relationship with your body after trauma, injury, or disconnection

• Navigating transition—grief, change, the spaces between who you were and who you’re becoming

• Building capacity for sensation without overwhelm

• Developing personal practices that ground rather than perform

• Working with patterns held in tissue—the places breath won’t go, where movement stops, where the body says no

This is titrated work. We go slowly. We pause. We let your nervous system set the pace. Integration matters more than insight.


Corporate & Community Programs

Workshops for organizations that understand stress isn’t just mental—it lives in shoulders, in breath held too long, in bodies that forgot how to settle. These programs offer practical, embodied tools for regulation, focus, and resilience that people can actually use in their lives.

Sessions can be tailored as single workshops, ongoing series, or retreats, adapted to various spaces and physical abilities. The work blends movement, mindfulness, and creative process in ways that serve collective wellbeing without demanding performance or forcing vulnerability in unsafe contexts.

What’s offered: accessible practices for working with stress in real time, understanding your own nervous system responses, creating sustainability in high-demand environments. The kind of embodied leadership that comes from actually being in your body, not just managing it.


Recovery Support

Specialized work for those moving through recovery from trauma or substance use. We understand addiction as what happens when we can’t be with what we feel -when the body becomes unsafe, when sensation overwhelms, when disconnection feels like the only option.

This approach emphasizes safety, agency, and nervous system literacy. We work with gentle movement, grounding breathwork, somatic techniques for processing and release, mindfulness practices that build capacity for presence. Not exercises to master but invitations to return—to sensation, to breath, to the felt sense of being here, in this body, now.

The work recognizes that recovery isn’t just about stopping use. It’s about learning to live in a body that can feel again, to develop tolerance for emotions that were once unbearable, to rebuild the connection between soma and psyche that trauma severed.

Sessions support traditional recovery approaches by addressing what happens beneath language, in the places where words don’t reach.

Available for treatment centers, recovery communities and individuals seeking support alongside existing care.

This work lives at the intersection of soma, psyche, and spirit -where the body is honored as the first home we return to, again and again, in the ongoing practice of becoming whole
