The course is designed to help you meet your goals by offering daily support, inspiration, and gentle accountability.

The live classes offer integration of the work and engagement with others.

I have designed this course to meet you where you are at, and help bring you wherever you want to go.

It is important to me that we always honor our body and do what feels right for each of us.

Thus, I invite you to adapt any of the movements in the recorded videos in a way that works for you.

During the live sessions, I will offer options for people to do the movements seated or laying down, at a slower pace, or in an easier way.

In my journey, I have worked with adults, kids, elders, in chairs, out of chairs, with words, without words, in different cultures, and with all different kinds of abilities.

The 40 | 40 program is designed to meet you where you are at along your journey.

The Live Class has 3 elements:

1. An integration of the movement videos from the week, blended together in a continuous flow.

2. A Q&A section which invites people to ask specific questions to support their unique experience.

3. A discussion and breakout room component that brings people into conversation and the chance to learn from the experiences of each other.

Yes, happy to!

To start, Dance is another way of saying 'rhythm', 'flow', 'integration' and 'expression'.

Movement is walking up to the ledge; Dance is jumping off of it. To dance takes courage, but until we do it, we can't fully heal. 

Because I strongly believe that if your healing journey doesn't include dance, it is incomplete.

Being able to move and express yourself freely is the destination of the healing journey. And it is also the path. Meaning we have to practice the act of dance, and this program offers a safe and supportive place to do that.

If dance is something that activates fear and embarrassment, you are not alone, and you have come to the right program. I specialize in making dance accessible to those who feel it is not.

The Dance Series in this program is not about learning a particular style of dance, but about learning how to connect the pathways from your hands to your feet, and from your head to your heart. It is about learning how to move with a little more ease so you can feel more fully alive.

The Dance Series is about learning how we can do everything in life with a little more rhythm, flow, and ease - from brushing our teeth to chopping vegetables, to walking down the street!

Dance is a result of freedom and healing, but it is also the pathway towards it.

In the words of the ancient Sufi mystic, Hafiz, "Come dance with me!"

Qi (Chi) means Breath, and Gong (Kung) means Work.

More than 5,000 years old, Qigong is one of the most ancient forms of structured and medicinal Breath-Work. 

Many of the physical practices in Qigong are movement meditations. These are fluid, continuous, and enjoyable experiences that bring the breath and movement into one.

Some fun history: Qigong began in caves by monks who contemplated nature. They observed that the same nature that exists outside the body - weather, forces, elements, and seasons - also exists inside the body in the form of emotions, thoughts, and actions.

As my teacher says, "Qigong is about being healthy and helping people."

I once heard the founder of TED Talks explain why his short talks were 20 minutes long. He said that 20 minutes is enough time to dig deep into a topic, but also short enough to fit it into your day.

I liked that. So I decided to create my videos with the same vision in mind.

Each video is filmed in one continuous take, so it is authentic and real, and perfect in its little imperfections - like us!

No problem! All the Live Classes will be recorded and made available after their conclusion. You will have access to all of these recordings for an additional week after the course ends.
