somanaut dance

Somanaut Dance is where I house my somatic movement dance education and choreographic explorations. For me, the two are inextricably linked processes, which grow from the same soil.

Somatic Movement Dance Education:
Somanaut dance is a place to explore the intersection between embodied somatic movement and dance. I am dedicated to free and innovative exploration of the living body through meditative and creative deep, internal listening and movement, and strive to create a sense of greater awareness, spaciousness, support, and positive well-being through our movement practices.

Choreographic Pursuits:
I create intellectual, contemporary work that is process-driven and somatically-informed. Through the use of democratic approaches and collaborative co-creation, I honor many bodies and many voices. I begin my process with dialogues which balance brain and body, thought and felt explorations, intellectual processes and lived experiences. My dance works feature relational collages which expand in thoughtful, open, and contemplative ways. Within the conceptual frameworks of my movement, I offer interrelational spaces for regaining play, wellness, and moments of support. I urge my audiences to think and feel simultaneously. I relish asking the juicy questions—zealously embodying the inquisition and kinaesthetically problem-solving— whether answers exist or not.
