Performance Art
Harmonize movement within collective spaces
through ritual performance art
Creative musings to catalyze healing intentions
I offer performance art as a means to muse creative vitality . Every expression gives honor to the dynamic journey of life, and the essential forces of nature. To me, performance provides an artistic and therapeutic channel that reveals the exalted beauty within the many facets of existence. I move with intention, allowing my intuition to guide, embodying ceremony, bringing visions to life within flow state. When stepping into performance, I align with what is needed to share with the collective to bring healing and welcome the supportive energies to assist in the process. A transmission that facilitates deeper connection with source and each other.
The exchange between performer and audience holds a profound ability to amplify energy. Both giving and receiving happens simultaneously within both perspectives, which allows everyone to co-create the experience together. Imbuing this process with ritual to charge one another, provides a strong container for the space to feel clear and vibrant. From this exchange I feel activism, it enlivens me and I see it inspires others, to move, to pray, to create, to thrive.
Modalities, styles, lineage, inspiration and history…
I feel blessed by the teachers and techniques that have offered a framework to articulate through my body language. Nature has been my ultimate guide through the mysteries of embodiment, however, I celebrate the variety of movement modalities that have contributed to what I call “Essential Fusion”. Guided by principles of yoga, ceremonial practice, body/energywork, internal martial arts, and earth tending, I approach movement as nourishment to feed the hunger that heals. As a "fusion" dancer, there are many different forms that have influenced my style, such as various types of belly dance, studio hip hop, modern, jazz, ballet, acrobatics, flow arts, and I continue to integrate inspiration from around the world. With over 25 years of technical training, and endless dedication to refining my gifts, I have studied, facilitated, collaborated and performed with numerous groups within the realms of dance, ritual theater, burlesque, acrobatics, fire spinning, and have persevered through intensive commitments of ceremonial movement practice both locally and globally. Whether developing choreography, improvising, or simply conditioning, I believe our motion holds the power to unwind restrictive patterns, process emotions, manifest our reality, and ignite our intuition to bring greater harmony to our lives.
OMotion Collective
The passion for communal motion as a means to catalyze prayer and honor the forces of nature, inspired me to birth OMotion Collective into existence. A multifaceted collaborative project inspiring dance with our cyclical rhythms. We circled in ceremony at least once a week for 4 years, navigating the mystery school of intentional trance states through dance. This cycle together set a strong foundation of practice for the healing formula I arrive to share with the world.
