Frequently Asked Questions
What is JourneyDance?
JourneyDance™ is a transformational dance form that combines freestyle and structured movement to inspire you to get out of your mind and into your body. I fell in love with JourneyDance when I walked into the free noon dance class at the Omega Institute in Rinebeck New York. Turns out the instructor that day was Toni Bergins the creator of JourneyDance! I felt so free and happy moving around the room in a way that was right for me and my body (not prescribed by a teacher). It was exhilarating and cathartic at the same time! Right away I knew I had to train and bring it to Canada. In 2013 I received my certificate acknowledging that I had successfully completed Modules One,Two, and Three of JourneyDance teacher training conferring the title of JourneyDance Certified Facilitator. Since 2013 I have taught JourneyDance at women's retreats, private women's gatherings, and have hosted regular community classes.
JourneyDance can be taught online and I am willing to offer that if the interests is there.

What is Energy Medicine?
What Happens During an Energy Medicine Session?
An energy medicine session starts with a thoughtful discussion about your symptoms and concerns. Working with my mesa (sacred healing bundle) and other energetic tools, I release blocked or stagnant energy from your system to open self-healing pathways. Your session will end with a guided meditation designed specifically for your energetic needs. Clients report a sense of peace and wellbeing after an energy medicine session.
What is Holistic Nutrition?
Holistic nutrition is about nourishing for your mind, body, and soul.
The goal of a holistic nutrition session is to re-establish optimal health and well-being from the inside out. It also helps repair your relationship to food and your body.
What happens during a holistic nutrition session?
Together we gather information about your current dietary habits and discuss the changes you would like to make. From this information an individual nutrition care plan is designed for you.
I work within a non-diet, weight inclusive paradigm that honours health over size.
