Every night when I lay in bed as a young girl, I would see myself dancing. My younger years were filled with the movement of ballet, karate, horse riding, playing piano and various sports.

Something that lives strongly in my bones, is karate. My dedication to karate is where my warrior spirit comes from, and balancing my warrior spirit with grace has comprised a large part of my journey. I became a world champion in fighting at age 10 and as a result did not have an ordinary childhood. Instead of spending time with friends, my weekends consisted of training camps, doing a shit ton of push ups and bawling my eyes out fighting against sensei’s. I was trained to become hard and show no weakness of emotion to my opponent. I had to toughen up, and in the process, I bottled up my feelings.

I also received many beautiful gifts through karate… learning how to observe my opponent, reading body language, respect, using my sixth sense, observation, interoception, control and patience.

But everything changed with the tragic loss of my best friend. I completely cracked – open – I didn’t want to compete anymore and all I wanted was a normal childhood. My black belt with all its stripes did not want to go on anymore. I switched karate schools to a gentler teacher and stopped competing around age 13 and instead, I spent my days with my friends and fell in love with horse riding.

In High School I became a complete rebel… from 14 years old I was going to trance parties and taking psychedelics. All I wanted was to dance, dance, dance to escape the realities of my life… all I wanted, was to go home.

At the age of 21 everything changed again. After having two near death experiences I realized that I will not be given the gift of this life again. I completely transformed my life… I viewed my body as my temple, became super health conscious and found my way back home to dance in a sober environment through the practice of Ecstatic Dance. I delved into healing arts, and I became a young Mama to my son, and life shifted into a family-orientated rhythm. The medicine of my twenties was that I started to feel at home and safe in my body and heart, and this became the helm of my work.

From very young I was able to see glimpses of the spirit realm – a gift passed on to me by the women in my lineage. Connecting with my grandmothers and aunts in my dreams stirred a deep remembrance within me of my ancestral ability to see into the dream realm. My ability to connect in this realm has strengthened over time and has shaped my journey with Dreamwork.

Healing my womb after experiencing two painful miscarriages lead me down the path of the Womb. To alchemise my grief into my gifts has been my greatest learning and shapes the essence of my work… that, and ultimately guiding people back to their own true selves. Working with suicidal women in underprivileged communities showed me the value of sharing the medicine of joy – of reminding them who they truly are.

Over the last 20 years I have learnt from many Western and Traditional Healers. I have trained in Reiki, Yoga, and Quantum touch. I have also graduated in Cacao training – walking the ceremonial path of working with IxCacao and Voice Alchemy. When I met my Movement Medicine teachers, I had a strong calling to walk this path of dance. It felt like a home-coming, a profound remembering of this sacred path of service.

I have a distinct capacity to truly listen to another and I am significantly in tune with my intuition. Weaving my life experiences and all the healing modalities I have learnt together, enables me to offer a powerful 1:1 session.

My work is about transformation. It is about feeling, sensing, listening, moving and trusting as we alchemizing our pain into power. Feeling safe to express our emotions, in connection and community. Remembering to play and laugh, giving ourselves permission to feel pure joy. Getting to know our nervous systems, our hearts, our minds… dealing with trauma, creating new neurological pathways and aligning with our true Self and with Source.
