About

If trauma has left you disconnected from your body, it's you — and this is your invitation to come home to it, gently and at your own pace.

At five, an accident took me far from my body and that disconnection followed me for decades, through loss, illness, and a cancer diagnosis that asked me to meet my body with love instead of fighting it. Chakradance is where I finally found my way back: to trust, to safety, to myself. I bring it into the world because I know what it costs to live disconnected from your body and how life-changing it is to return. I want to offer others that same way home.

After a childhood accident, years of burnout, and surviving cancer, I had lost touch with my own body, even my memory and energy felt changed. Chakradance helped me find my way back. Through dance, meditation, and mandala art, I reconnected with parts of myself I'd buried, simply because I didn't know how to reach them. It gave me back my confidence in my body, and space to process pain I'd carried for years. This isn't a quick fix it's a continuous journey, one that still surprises me.
