"Through Love all pain is turned to medicine" - Rumi
Welcome to Body-Mind Freedom personal training, yoga, health coaching and therapeutic bodywork.
As a passionate body nerd, personal trainer and massage therapist specializing in injury & chronic pain, I bow in the face of the mind boggling power of yoga and mindful strength training to motivate, awaken and heal our physical selves through delicious movement. By openly acknowledging not only the physical but the mental, psycho-spiritual and energetic nourishment of movement we more efficiently receive its medicine, infusing our life with ever deepening levels of wellbeing, fulfillment and clarity of our purpose as it serves the whole.
While dance, ease and flow are essential to the soul, the body craves healing posture and strength to thrive, and the mind is hungry to understand both our body and our soul on a deeper level. In each session, I aspire to strike a balance between juicy flow, strength- based alignment exploration, yoga philosophy and the inner journey of meditation & breath-work.
As a wisdom collector, mystic, activist and philosophy student, my life is a laboratory for experimenting with technologies of human liberation and breaking down hierarchal modes of relating to myself and others. The most effective path I’ve found thus far on my journey is that of our ancient ancestors- living in collective harmony with the cycles of the natural world. Therefore, each session is designed around the cycle of the moon and the seasons with the intention of deepening our community roots. In addition to Celtic earth wisdom, I’m inspired by leading edge myofascial and neuroscience, Tantric Buddhism, Ayurveda, Chinese Medicine, archetypal mythology, guided visualization and somatic psychology.
