I'm so glad you're here...

After a complex and challenging journey through body breakdown...

I learned (the hard way!) how precious it is to reclaim embodied practice with deepened understanding of bodymind science, humble reverence to ancient techniques & renewed childlike wonder.

​

Movement is medicine for the body, mind & soul.

I truly believe that the potency of embodied practice has the power to change the world.

​

I can't wait to share some of the ways we're learning to make it even better. 

​

We're all in this together.

It's so clear you've put years of thought and care into these sessions. I am very impressed. The presentations, the slides, everything is so well thought out. The ideas are clear, compelling, and important. Just wow.

Ethan C.

Your contribution to the evolution of yoga asana, grounded in years of study, practice, and sharing adds an opening for engagement, growth, and deeper understanding (and hopefully acceptance) of self and everyone.

Robin F.

It is obvious that Michelle teaches both from the heart and from a profound understanding of the body and all of the stories it carries within it. 

She's a luminous & warm-hearted teacher.

I love the way you're thinking, cross-pollinating disciplines, and constantly experimenting. Your practices have always felt like playful, supple, buffet-style, resonant goodness. In LOVE with the idea of embodiment as a form of political and environmental activism.

Emma D.

Michelle truly embodies the extended training and years of teaching she's dedicated over the decades. It's clear how much passion she has and how she really lives her life through these practices.

The training was incredible.

Amy M.

Thank you for a wonderful workshop- it was very curious and interesting to experience familiar postures  & movement in a different way & from a new perspectives. Thank you bringing so much light into this field! I absolutely love your approach and your energy!
