movement and stillness

Dance is movement, is action, and like all action, it reveals us to ourselves in the doing.

I dance for transformation of my being and for the world around me. We move. We move energy and we move our lives …. forward, backward, sideways, up, down and still. We move.   When we move through discomfort on the dance floor, we transform it. When we move through discomfort off the dance floor, we transform it.

As a dancer and as a dispute resolution professional, movement and stillness play an important role in my work. In the 5Rhythms® practice, we use the dance floor to move through and past things that keep us stuck. We transform our discomfort into art and liberate ourselves from the limitations of our stories. We move through the Wave of 5Rhythms® to the last rhythm of stillness, where the wisdom of the spirit and body can be heard over the chatter of the mind. I practice with this same commitment off the dance floor. Beginning from this still place, as a dispute resolution practitioner, I help people have difficult conversations. Using the promise of movement, difficult conversations can take their own unique transformative course from confusion to connection.
