There is nothing quite like playing on a Sunday Morning for a dance church experience with my dance fam at Asheville Movement Collective. Especially when it is at the beautiful Warren Wilson College Pavilion!

Thank you for all the dedicated dancers who came and got down, and to all you digital listeners out there!

This set was inspired first by a poem I wrote (will share below!), and evolved into being guided by sacred sounds from around the world. It is my hopes it takes you to that sacred space within, where love is found <3

"Sacred space
Each day a bit more held
A bit more solid
A bit more subtle
A little brighter & lighter
Each day, returning 
Surrender feels safer, softer now 
Settled in skin
Steady in sight 
Straight in spine
Sober in mind
Centered in Self
~
The silence stopped being so loud 
The noise died down
Nothing but space
All the space in the world 
~
But the grief, it stuck around
A love with no where to go
Begging to be made 
By breath into prayer 
~
And so I pray 
Every day
Love’s devotee,
Beloved longing
Here at the altar of aching adoration
A broken heart is the prerequisite 
Tears are the offering 
The Goddess does love the way they glisten like diamonds 
Tickling the cheek 
Softening the skin 
She whispers, “surrender…
Break open that beautiful heart
I’ve got you”
~
I soak up the silence 
In stillness sensing the subtle sound of sweet memories made in love
You gave me space, so I made it sacred
~
In my sweet sacred space 
I meet my Beloved, 
Everyday, 
With a heart broken open
Offering tears at the altar, 
Of my undying Love
It was always you, Beloved
And You were always Here
~
I let go 
And all that was left 
was Love…
~
…And this time,
Love is enough."

Gliding in my daydreams

Pulso de la Montaña | 2.5hr Ecstatic Dance @ Gaia Dance Temple, Tzununa | 10.26.25

After a year and a half away from the Gaia, this night felt like a homecoming. ✨
There’s something about this dance Temple...  where it all began for me. The energy of Tzununa and the heartbeat of la Montaña's that always brings me back!

This journey was pure remembrance… of pulse, presence, and prayer through movement.
So grateful to return to where it all began.

🎧 Recorded live under the stars at Lake Atitlán
💃🏽 Turn it up, close your eyes, and feel the pulse of being ALIVE.

Pulso de la Montaña | 2.5hr Ecstatic Dance @Gaia Dance Temple, Guatemala | 10.26.25

All the feels in this one. 
Medicine for the feminine. 
This one is meant to be a journey, through and through. Gets pretty intense around the hour mark, you have been fair warned ;)
Played live for some powerful priestesses in the temple of the Divine Mother. 
So beautiful, so blessed. Thank you thank you <3

{PURRRIESTESS} ~ Medicine for the Feminine ~ Temple of the Awakening Heart 10.29.25

Here is my live e-dance from 11.07.2025 at the Asheville Movement Collective...

How do we humans process and move through our emotions, our grief, our rage, our fear, our longing, our loneliness? How do we deal with the fear of the future, the ever-shifting unknown unknowns, the countless wars and atrocities, the very real existential threats to the people and the planet, the depths of despair, the raging fires inside, and the seemingly futile fight to save ourselves from ourselves? ...

WE DANCE - We dance harder than our minds think our body is capable of. To dance is to pray, to fully surrender E-V-E-R-Y-T-H-I-N-G through the holy water pouring from our pores onto the wooden floors. It's the only way I know. And it's an ancient technology that has been around for as long as humanity.

This dance wave is meant to be a container to allow the frequencies of the full-spectrum of emotions come through and be felt and embodied.
