Hi!

I like to consider myself a Body Alchemist who is continuously transforming my own life and those of others through the use of the body. I’m constantly curious about anything new and wanting to stand in new perspectives.

Much of my most intensive training has been with Stick Work, which has it’s foundations in the martial art Systema and Biodynamic Cranial Sacral Therapy. I have trained in the three levels of certification through my trainer Bob Gardner, having certified in the Level 1 and Level 2 certifications, awaiting to certify in Level 3. On top of training with Bob, I have trained with Aleksej Sopronov, one of the original people that brought stick work to the western world. I have also spent many hours training in Systema, learning and embodying the principles it teaches.

Outside of my experience with Stick Work, I have trained in various breathwork modalities, including Wim Hof, Biodynamic Breathwork, and various somatic breathwork practices. More than anything, I’ve played with these modalities, tweaking them in my practices, combining them, learning how they interact with my own body.

My journey in healing began when I entered College, after a beautiful adventure in high school swimming. At that time, I found CrossFit and fell in love with efficiently using my body, finding new ways to move and keep my body free. In doing so, I didn’t realize how much I was freeing my body to help me let go of the addictions and depression I was holding on to. Later, I found the concepts of somatic body work, realizing the power that’s held in the body to retrain the condition of life that we live. Since then, I’ve been dedicated to finding ways to unlock myself, being free to experience all aspects of life.

I’d love it if you join me on this journey.
