I love movement in connection with nature, and helping people connect with nature through movement.
A wide range of movement forms can connect with our natural environment (i.e. climbing, walking, bodysurfing or swimming) and give us valuable feedback about our mind, movement and form, allowing us to be more present with our environment through our body.
Dynamic balance is an important presence in my life. My acupuncture practice has always been led by direct, visceral feedback; working through my own injuries and and helping people around me with acupuncture and self myofascial release, because it works.
Health, wellness and optimal movement is a process, not a destination, and my purpose is to help you dial in with that process.
