Dancing for Birth
"In a society that worships love, freedom and beauty -
dance is sacred.
It is a prayer for the future, a remembrance of the past and a joyful exclamation of thanks for the present"
Amelia Atwater-Rhodes
My interest in becoming a Dancing for Birth instructor was fueled by my personal experiences of using dance as a healing tool for womb wellness. For many years, I endured painful menstrual cycles and experienced severe symptoms that often left me hospitalized or unable to carry out daily tasks. Dancing became a personal practice that provided me with a way to tap into my inner power and channel my desire to heal.
As a Dancing for Birth instructor, my intention is to support you on your journey to parenthood by guiding you to ignite your body wisdom through sacred dance movement. Join me at a Dancing for Birth class so you can unleash your inner goddess and feel proud, confident, educated and empowered!
