Set in a small, serene environment surrounded by natural beauty - or online - our classes of 3-6 students (never more) are an inspirational adventure full of personal attention and private quality instruction.

This energy lifting movement grounds, centers, clears, soothes, awakens, and nourishes body, mind, and soul. It stimulates the meridians, activates the chakras, warms, stretches and tones the muscles.
Dance Wellness
A blend of traditional, multicultural, creative dance styles and stretching foster wellness of body, mind, and spirit. For total well-being, opt to add guided meditation to complement your physical fitness with inner peace.
Style Enhancement
When self-expression shines through every movement, that is style! It is the pinnacle of performance and pleasure, captivating the heart, mind, and vision of the audience and dancer. With sensitivity for subtle nuance, I support you to move beyond steps and inhibitions to radiate full feeling and confidence while you dance.
Technique Refinement
From the dancer in training to the professional, we all move upon a foundation of technique. Sometimes the slightest refinement makes the most significant difference in balance, poise, and execution. I bring a trained eye for detail and an intuitive understanding of working with energy to firm and fine-tune your foundation together with you.
Performance Preparation
Between the choreography and the stage, there is naturally an abundance of preparation - physically, mentally, and emotionally. I offer a full repertoire of coaching support through all aspects of polishing the steps, enhancing the style, and freeing the spirit to shine with ease.

I somehow was transformed into seeing beauty. Gigi is a beautiful person, very patient, non judging.
